Procurement of DAQ Shock System

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center has issued a Special Notice regarding the procurement of a DAQ Shock System, specifically a PhoenixKonnect/QuantusSeries 20-Channel ALI-25 Data Systems 5MSa/s 24Bit Shock Measurement System. This notice was posted on August 28, 2025, and serves as a Sources Sought Notice for what NASA intends to be a sole source procurement to PHYSIO SYSTEMS, INC. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 561499 (All Other Business Support Services) and will support operations at NASA Johnson Space Center. The notice includes documentation detailing requirements for Non Explosive Actuators and Frangibotts, though the primary focus is on the specialized data measurement system. NASA/NSSC is managing this procurement process and has provided specific contact information for interested parties.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to determine whether the procurement should be conducted on a competitive basis rather than as the intended sole source award to PHYSIO SYSTEMS, INC. Interested organizations must submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing to the primary point of contact, Cara Craft, by 1:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on September 3, 2025. There are no specific eligibility criteria outlined beyond the requirement to demonstrate relevant capabilities for providing the specialized shock measurement system. The government will evaluate all submissions solely to make a determination about the procurement approach, with the final decision remaining at the government's discretion. Performance of any resulting contract will take place at NASA Johnson Space Center, and the procurement involves highly specialized data acquisition equipment for shock measurement applications.
