About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy Office of Naval Research has issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of optical clock technology under contract N0017325P0003. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334519 for Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing and PSC category 6685 for Pressure, Temperature, and Humidity Measuring and Controlling Instruments, indicating the acquisition of precision timing and measurement equipment. The contract was awarded on September 26, 2025, though both the vendor identity and contract value remain undisclosed in the publicly available information. The justification documentation was posted on September 17, 2025, providing a nine-day window between notice publication and contract award. Based on the optical clock designation and the measuring device classification, this procurement likely involves highly specialized atomic or optical frequency standards for defense-related timing and navigation applications. The sole source nature of this procurement suggests the required optical clock technology is available from only one qualified vendor or involves proprietary capabilities essential to naval operations.
