Resono Chronos - Presa & Pulsar

NASA's Shared Services Center has issued a Special Notice for the procurement of Resono Chronos - Presa & Pulsar systems under NAICS Code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing). This is a sole source procurement intended for RESONO PRESSURE SYSTEMS, INC. to provide specialized equipment for NASA Johnson Space Center operations. The procurement falls under the commercial items category and involves pressure measurement and data acquisition systems. The notice serves as a synopsis announcing NASA's intent to award a contract without competitive bidding due to the sole source nature of the required technology. The acquisition is being managed through NASA's contracting procedures with specific evaluation criteria for any potential alternative sources.

The procurement's primary objective is to acquire a Resono Chronos system to support aerodynamic and fluid dynamics research at NASA Langley Research Center, specifically focusing on understanding complex interactions in unsteady flows for advanced vehicle designs. The system includes five main components: the Chronos-Presa Data Acquisition System, Chronos-Pulsar Tubing Characterization Device, Chronos-Pmax DAQ software suite, Chronos-Pmax Recon signal reconstruction package, and comprehensive delivery, installation, and training services. Interested organizations have until 1 p.m. Central Standard Time on August 22, 2025, to submit written capabilities and qualifications to the designated contracting officer at Cara.s.craft@nasa.gov. Any submissions will be evaluated to determine whether the procurement should be opened to competitive bidding, though the final decision remains at the government's discretion. The performance will occur at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA, with a 30-day delivery timeline after receipt of order, and oral communications are not acceptable for this acquisition process.
