About this opportunity

NIST is preparing to issue a sole-source award for Spatial Analyzer Metrology Software Support and invites alternate sources to respond by July 27, 2026, with anticipated award value of $47 million. If no viable alternatives are identified, NIST intends to sole-source to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence under FAR 12.102(a).

Place of performance is NIST's Center for Neutron Research facility. The procurement covers software support, upgrades, and license renewal for Spatial Analyzer software used by the Research Facility Operations Engineering Group since 2008. NIST states that Spatial Analyzer is the only software capable of opening and editing the proprietary file format containing substantial historical data accumulated over years, and that replacement or allowing support to lapse would be prohibitively expensive.

Interested parties must submit responses to robert.singman@nist.gov by July 27, 2026 at 11:00 AM Eastern Time. Responses should include company information, capability details, evidence of authorized reseller status, identification of any unduly restrictive requirements, small business status relative to NAICS code 513210, existing federal contracts, and relevant experience. NIST retains sole discretion to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses received.
