About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Space Command is conducting a Sources Sought Notice for a Rohde and Schwarz Signal Generator, specifically the SMW200A model with multiple hardware and software configurations. This market research initiative aims to identify potential small business vendors capable of supplying complex signal generation equipment with specific technical specifications. The notice requires interested parties to respond by May 30, 2025, and notify both the Contracting Officer Alejandro Castellanos and Contract Specialist Tatum Kiley via email. Respondents must confirm if they can meet all equipment specifications and provide their expected lead time for delivery. The government's primary objective is to ensure adequate competition among responsible vendors and understand the capabilities of potential suppliers.
The procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, with a particular focus on various small business categories including Section 8(a), HUB-Zone, Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB). The signal generator package includes multiple hardware options such as frequency range extensions, wideband baseband modules, and pulse modulators, with a base delivery time of 5 weeks and an initial 12-month warranty. The equipment falls under the NAICS category 334515 for Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals, and the PSC category 6625 for Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments. While no specific award value is mentioned, the detailed technical specifications suggest a sophisticated and potentially high-value procurement targeting specialized small business vendors in the electronic testing equipment sector.
