About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Research and Development Center intends to issue a sole source award to Kulite Semiconductor Products (CAGE 34345) for Dynamic Response Pressure Transducers, with a comment period closing September 4, 2026. This procurement is set aside for Total Small Business.
The ERDC Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory uses Kulite pressure gauges and detonators to measure pressures in high shock environments during explosive testing of protective measures and devices in the Fragment Simulation Laboratory. The laboratory requires continued inventory replenishment and expansion of these specialized gauges to maintain measurement capabilities for shock wave propagation analysis. New gauges must remain consistent with existing hardware to ensure data repeatability and compatibility with previous experimental results. The ERDC has determined that only Kulite products meet the technical requirement for consistency with legacy equipment and measurement accuracy in explosive test environments.
Notice text
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Research and Development Center (ERDC), Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL) intends to issue a sole source award to Kulite Semiconductor Products (CAGE:34345) to procure Dynamic Response Pressure Transducers.
The unique requirements detailed are critical to the continuation of the GSL’s mission and continued research in the Fragment Simulation Laboratory (FSL).The ERDC GSL is engaged in conducting research involving explosive tests of protective measures and various explosive devices documented by modules critical in taking measurements. To support this explosive research, the GSL researchers have historically used firing modules and detonators manufactured by the Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Kulite”). These specific gauges must remain consistent with existing hardware to ensure repeatable data are collected during testing events and the data are consistent and compatible to data collected in previous experiments. To maintain the researcher’s capabilities to accurately measure needed data, the Kulite products are required.
The GSL uses pressure gauges and supporting equipment to measure pressures in high shock environments. To maintain the GSL’s capabilities to accurately measure pressure and shock wave propagation from explosive events, new gauges must be purchased to replenish and expand current inventory. These specialized gauges must remain consistent with previous gauges used to ensure repeatable data are collected during test events. Only the Kulite products will meet the requirement.
