About this opportunity
The Department of the Army is seeking a compact electric hydrogen compressor/gas booster through this solicitation, targeting small businesses with specific technical requirements for the device. The compressor must be a two-stage system capable of operating on 220VAC single-phase power, with gas inlet pressure capabilities up to 4,200 psi and outlet pressure reaching 12,500 psi. Critical technical specifications include integrated pressure reducers, bypass lines, shutoff valves, and pressure relief mechanisms, along with operational features like manual start/stop switches and hour meters. The solicitation requires the compressor to meet precise dimensional and weight constraints, specifically weighing under 160 lbs and measuring smaller than 38in x 12in x 24in. The proposal is due by May 15, 2025, with the opportunity initially posted on April 15, 2025, categorized under Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing (NAICS 333912) and Compressors and Vacuum Pumps (PSC 4310).
This contract opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside, meaning only qualifying small businesses can compete for the award. While specific award value details are not provided in the solicitation, the technical complexity and specialized nature of the hydrogen compressor suggest a potentially significant procurement. The Department of the Army, specifically a defense-related agency, will be the contracting entity evaluating proposals based on the stringent technical specifications outlined. The compressor will likely be deployed in a military or research-oriented environment requiring precise hydrogen compression capabilities. No incumbent contractor information is disclosed in the current solicitation notice, indicating this might be a new procurement or replacement of existing equipment.
