About this opportunity
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD), operating under the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, is procuring a Flow Imaging Microscopy System from Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies, Inc. through a sole source acquisition. The requirement includes a FlowCam 8400 (488 nm) microscopy instrument along with associated components such as objective kits, standards and sample preparation kit, installation and training services, a silver service plan, shipping kit, power cord, and domestic shipping. The procurement is justified on the basis that NSWC PCD's sponsoring program office has existing experience with this specific brand of microscope and possesses significant test data that must remain consistent across all datasets; procuring alternative equipment could introduce unacceptable analytical errors. The contract will be awarded on a best value basis, considering price, delivery, quality, and past performance. The solicitation was posted on November 24, 2025, with a response due date of December 2, 2025, and the contract specialist for inquiries is Jessica Clark at jessica.d.clark27.civ@us.navy.mil.
This procurement utilizes no small business set-aside designation and represents a sole source award to the original equipment manufacturer, Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies, Inc., which does not sell these items through distribution channels. The total dollar value for this acquisition exceeds micro-purchase levels but does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold, making it eligible for simplified acquisition procedures. The eight line items being procured will support testing and analysis of an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV). The place of performance is Panama City Beach, Florida 32407, with acceptance of deliveries occurring Monday through Friday during NSWC-PCD operating hours of 0830 to 1500 local time. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC code 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies).

Flow Imaging Microscopy System
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) has a requirement to place a flow imaging microscope on an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV). Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies is the OEM and does not sell these items through distribution. These items are going to be used to support testing and analysis of the aforementioned UUV. The sponsoring program office has used this brand microscope and has a significant amount of test data on file. In order to maintain uniformity across all data sets, it is in the Governments best interest to procure the same hardware that is in use elsewhere. If another brand were to be selected, the collected data may not be consistent with the data on file, resulting in unacceptable analytical errors.
