About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command, through AMIC Det 2 OL/PKA Contracting Squadron at Patrick Space Force Base, Florida, is issuing a Notice of Intent to award a single-source purchase order for specialized gamma-ray detection equipment to be used by the Air Force Technical Applications Center. The procurement includes six line items: a GMX50-83-XLB-C ORTEC GAMMA-X coaxial N-type HPGe extra-low-background gamma-ray detector with 50% relative photopeak efficiency and carbon fiber endcap, DSPEC-PRO digital spectrometer with MAESTRO software, a two-piece plug for vertical dipstick cryostat, GammaVision software network copy, technical support services, and an extra-low-background streamline vertical cryostat with lead shield. The single-source justification is based on AMETEK Advanced Measurement Technology, Inc. being the exclusive creator, owner, licensor, and copyright holder of ORTEC HPGe products, with no authorized resellers available in the United States. There are no stated evaluation criteria or competitive selection metrics provided in this notice, as the intent is to proceed with a sole-source award. The deadline for interested parties to submit documentation regarding their capability and interest in responding is 11:00 A.M. EST on April 7, 2026, with submissions required electronically to sean.moore.24@us.af.mil and ian.batchelor.1@us.af.mil.

This procurement is not designated as a set-aside contract. AMETEK Advanced Measurement Technology, Inc. is identified as the incumbent and sole-source provider capable of supplying the required equipment. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the published notice. The procurement consists of six distinct line items representing both equipment and services, with the service component limited to one annual on-site technical support visit per year for three days with all travel expenses included. The Government has reserved discretion to conduct a competitive procurement should responses received from interested parties demonstrate viable alternative sources, though the single-source justification suggests this outcome is unlikely given the proprietary nature of the ORTEC product line.
