About this opportunity
NASA's Shared Services Center announced a sole-source procurement for one Linde TAFA 1264WL Weight-Loss Powder Feeder with a response deadline of August 11, 2026, and intends to award exclusively to Linde Advanced Material Technologies Inc. under FAR 12.102(a) authority for commercial items. The 1264WL is the only feeder compatible with NASA's existing IMPACT vacuum plasma spray system; competing feeders from Praxair/Metco, Sulzer Metco, and other manufacturers cannot interface with the TAFA control architecture, carrier-gas plumbing, electrical connectors, human-machine interface, or safety interlocks without major redesign that would incur significant cost increases, schedule delays, safety risks, and potential warranty voidance. The equipment will be delivered to NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, with a lead time of two months. The procurement deliverable includes the feeder (Part #800900A) with 1–14 RPM motor housing, hopper assembly, 480 inches of tubing, a 20-meter HMI extension cord, a low-height cart, a 2-hopper storage rack with heater blanket capability (Part #600987), operator's manuals, and up to 8 hours of onsite Start-up, Calibration & Training services plus 16 hours of travel time. Interested organizations may submit written capabilities statements demonstrating whether the procurement should proceed competitively; submissions to Shanna L. Patterson (Shanna.L.Patterson@nasa.gov) must arrive by 7:00 a.m. Central Standard Time on August 11, 2026. NAICS code 332117 applies.
