About this opportunity

NASA's Shared Services Center intends to award a sole-source contract to Magtrol Inc. for repair and maintenance of a J ERB SE-12 Magtrol dynamometer at Glenn Research Center, with a response deadline of July 20, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time.

The dynamometer sustained water damage from a burst HVAC coil in March 2026 and was shipped to Magtrol for evaluation. Magtrol's inspection, completed in June 2026, determined the unit is repairable at approximately half the cost of replacement. NASA has determined Magtrol is the sole qualified provider because the dynamometer incorporates proprietary components, firmware, and calibration methods that only Magtrol can service to original equipment manufacturer specifications and accuracy requirements. Alternative vendors lack technical capability and authorization to service Magtrol systems; engaging a non-OEM provider would introduce unnecessary packaging, handling, and transportation expenses, increase damage risk, and cause research schedule delays.

The procurement will use FAR Part 12 commercial item procedures (NAICS 811310). Interested organizations may submit written capabilities and qualifications by the July 20 deadline solely to determine whether the Government will conduct this procurement competitively. The Government retains sole discretion to proceed competitively based on responses received. Oral communications are not acceptable. Performance will be located at NASA Glenn Research Center. NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, applies.
