SOLICITATION CANCELLED. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center sought procurement of one handheld XRF analyzer, with quotations originally due May 12, 2026; this solicitation (FA812626Q0036) is now cancelled.
The requirement was 100% small business set-aside, brand name only (Thermo Scientific Niton XL5 Plus), with no substitutes or equals permitted. Place of performance and delivery destination is Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, FOB Destination. The contracting officer designated the Niton XL5 Plus as sole-capable based on its proprietary 5W X-ray tube and Geometrically Optimized Large Area Drift Detector (GOLDD+) technology, which enables rapid quantification of light elements—magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur—without external vacuum pumps or helium purge systems. Market research confirmed no competitor offers this specific technology combination.
The analyzer must analyze 80 different elements (Magnesium 12 through Uranium 92), deliver results in approximately 1–2 seconds, and operate with minimum X-ray tube output of 50kV, 200A with rhodium anode. The device must include computer connectivity to download scans and results, with accompanying software for data management. The contract was to be awarded on a Firm-Fixed-Price basis for delivery on or before June 30, 2026. NAICS code is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing; PSC code is 6635, Physical Properties Testing and Inspection.
