About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) has issued a sole source justification notice for the procurement of a Bruker TI Premier II Dynamic Nanoindenter system to enhance their research capabilities in military engineering, specifically for force protection and materials development. The specialized laboratory equipment features unique characteristics including electrostatic actuation, thermal drift control of less than 0.05 nm/sec, a 10N load transducer, and the capability to perform up to 4 nanoindentation measurements per second with an integrated antivibration system. The sole source justification was approved because market research confirmed no known existing contracts for this specific system, and the unique technical specifications require this particular manufacturer's equipment. Contract W912HZ25PA022 was awarded on September 24, 2025, to an unknown vendor, with the total estimated dollar value redacted from the available documentation. The procurement was conducted under FAR Part 13 for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold and is funded through Civil Works Funding. The Contracting Officer Christine Shuck certified the fair and reasonable pricing and approved the sole source justification subject to fund availability and prior authorization.
