About this opportunity

The United States Air Force Academy's Physics Department and Laser and Optics Research Center is seeking to procure two frequency counters through solicitation FA700025Q0107. The required frequency counters must meet specific technical specifications including a minimum 15 GHz count rate, 100 ps single shot time resolution, 12 digits/s display resolution, ultra-high stability OCXO oven timebase, totalize mode, and two additional 350 MHz channels. This is a firm-fixed price acquisition that will be evaluated based on both price and technical capability, with the government considering the ability to meet minimum specifications, warranties, delivery schedule, and special features relevant to the Air Force Academy's mission priorities. The evaluation will follow a best value award determination approach, and the government reserves the right to conduct interchanges with quoters. Quotes are due by 10:00 AM on August 13, 2025, and must remain valid through September 30, 2025, with responses required to be submitted via email along with a completed Buy American Certificate.

This procurement is set aside for Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) enterprises under NAICS code 334515 with a size standard of 750 employees. No incumbent contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. While no specific budget range is disclosed, this is structured as a competitive quote process for the purchase of two specialized frequency counter units. The contract requires delivery within 60 calendar days from the date of award, with the equipment to be delivered to the HQ USAFA Division of Basic Sciences. Performance will take place at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where the equipment will support the academy's physics research and educational mission.
