The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Nuclear Weapons Center is procuring a National Instruments PXI Vector Signal Transceiver system and associated equipment, including a PXIe-1092 9-Slot 3U PXI Express Chassis with timing and synchronization capabilities, a PXIe-8862 2.6 GHz 8-Core i7 controller running Windows 11 IOT LTSC 24H2 64-bit, a three-year Standard Service Program for PXI Systems, LabVIEW Professional Development System with perpetual licensing, a NI PXIe-5842 VST module with 8 GHz capability, peripherals, and a traceable calibration certificate. The acquisition is being conducted under a firm fixed price arrangement utilizing simplified acquisition procedures, with contracting officers Holly Carbine and Kristen Cross identified as primary points of contact. The contractor must complete designated blocks within the solicitation document and comply with numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) clauses, including representations and certifications requirements. The solicitation does not specify detailed evaluation criteria beyond standard commercial acquisition procedures. The offer deadline is May 11, 2026, with an earlier internal deadline of May 5, 2026 at 11:30 PM Mountain Time noted in the associated solicitation document.

This procurement is designated as a 100 percent small business set-aside under the Small Business Administration size standard of 1,000 employees, limiting competition to qualified small business concerns within the Computer Terminal and Other Computer Peripheral Equipment Manufacturing industry (NAICS 334118). No incumbent contractor or previous award values are identified in the available documentation. The procurement encompasses eight line items comprising a single integrated system for use as a spare for an existing unit, to be delivered to Hill Air Force Base, Utah 84056. While the exact total contract value is not explicitly stated in the solicitation notice, the scope suggests this is a straightforward equipment procurement under the simplified acquisition threshold requiring a single delivery rather than an ongoing service contract beyond the three-year PXI system maintenance program. Payment will be processed through the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system in accordance with the Prompt Payment Act requirements.
