About this opportunity

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), Research Analysis Division within the Department of Treasury is procuring a Single Note Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) System to capture spectral data for individual banknote and coupon samples. The system must operate in the Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) electromagnetic spectrum from 400-1000 nm and include a hyperspectral camera with push-broom scanning mode, USB3 interface, lenses/filters, mounting system, light sources, computer with Windows 11, and associated software. The instrument will support research and development activities as well as banknote production by analyzing individual samples rather than entire sheets. The solicitation uses a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology for source selection. Quote submissions are due by 2:00 PM ET on September 3, 2025, following an amendment that extended the original deadline from August 27, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. The contract will be awarded as a firm fixed-price arrangement with a one-year performance period that includes delivery, installation, training for five BEP personnel, and a one-year warranty. The complete system must fit within a 40-inch deep by 52-inch wide benchtop area and weigh under 500 pounds. Performance will occur at the BEP's District Currency Facility in Washington, DC, where the contractor will be responsible for installation and training services. The solicitation does not specify contract value ranges, and no incumbent contractors are identified in the available documentation.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), Research Analysis Division (RAD), Office of Technology Development (OTD), located at the District Currency Facility (DCF) is a component of the Department of the Treasury and has a requirement for a Single Note Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) System. This instrument will capture images of samples and collect spectral data for each pixel of the images. Information in the Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum from 400 – 1000 nm will be analyzed. The single note HSI will simplify analysis of coupons and banknotes by evaluating individual samples in contrast to an entire sheet of potential samples. Results from these images and measurements will be used to support research and development as well as banknote production.
