About this opportunity
The Naval Research Laboratory issued a Notice of Intent to award a sole source purchase order to Twinleaf LLC of Plainsboro, New Jersey for magnetic shield chambers and vapor cells, with a response deadline of September 25, 2026. This is not a competitive solicitation; NRL has determined that only one responsible source can satisfy its requirements. The procurement includes a four-layer magnetic shield set with three-axis internal field coils and five first-order gradient coils, a low-noise bipolar programmable current supply rated at 1,000 mA, and five borosilicate glass vapor cells with cesium and varying neon pressures (vacuum, 2 Torr, 10 Torr, 20 Torr, and 100 Torr). The purchase will be made under Simplified Acquisition Procedures per FAR 13.106-1(b), with an estimated value not exceeding the $250,000 simplified acquisition threshold. NAICS code 541715 (Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences) applies, with PSC R425. Interested parties may identify their capability to respond in accordance with the referenced procedures.
