About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center issued a special notice announcing its sole-source procurement intent for an ion gun replacement from BEAM IMAGING SOLUTIONS, INC, with a capability statement deadline of 3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on October 15, 2026. The procurement invokes FAR 12.102(a) authority and uses FAR Part 12 commercial item procedures. NAICS code 334516 applies. NASA/GSFC will be the performance location. Interested vendors may submit written capability statements to evaluate whether the agency should conduct competitive procurement instead; quotes will not be accepted and will not be evaluated. The ion gun and controller system must produce ion beams from 30 volts to 20 kilovolts with adjustable beam flux and compatibility with the existing vacuum chamber mounting configuration. Performance is scheduled to begin approximately September 1, 2026, with a 12-week delivery timeline to approximately December 1, 2026, driven by an urgent requirement to support charged particle instrument flight missions due within six months of the statement of work date. Capability statements must reference the notice ID and be submitted in writing to Procurement Specialist II Cody Guidry at Cody.d.guidry@nasa.gov. Oral communications are not acceptable. NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215-84 (Ombudsman) applies.
