The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is seeking to procure a tunable Continuous Wave (CW) laser and fiber amplifier for its Geospatial Research Laboratory. The specific requirements include a seed laser that can be tuned from 1529 nm to 1560 nm with a linewidth less than 25 KHz and an average power tuning range of 10-16 dBm. The accompanying fiber amplifier must produce 2W (33dBm) of continuous power at 1532.8 nm. The procurement will follow a lowest price, technically acceptable selection process, requiring vendors to submit detailed quotes demonstrating full compliance with all technical specifications. The solicitation is open from April 29, 2025, with proposals due by May 7, 2025, and vendors are expected to provide a comprehensive response addressing each detailed requirement.

This contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, targeting smaller businesses in the Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals sector (NAICS 334515). The place of performance is located in Kingstowne, VA 22315, with delivery expected within 8 weeks after order receipt. Vendors must provide a 12-month basic warranty and be prepared to support the system for any problems or malfunctions. The delivery will be made to a military installation, and delivery drivers may be subject to background checks for access. While specific award value is not explicitly stated, the procurement is for a precise scientific instrument with stringent technical requirements, suggesting a specialized and potentially high-value contract for the selected vendor.
