vibration table controller

NASA's Shared Services Center issued a sole-source presolicitation notice on August 26, 2026, for a vibration table controller, with capability statements due by August 31, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time. NASA intends to award this contract to Data Physics under FAR 12.102(a) commercial item authority, but will evaluate submitted capability statements to determine whether to conduct competitive procurement; the Government reserves discretion to proceed with the sole-source award regardless.

The requirement calls for one dynamic signal analyzer with closed-loop control capabilities to replace an existing Data Physics Abacus 700 system at NASA Ames Research Center's Engineering Evaluation Laboratory. The controller must interface with the existing Ling 300A vibration table, provide a minimum of 24 input channels, support random and sine closed-loop control operations across 5 Hz to 2000 Hz, include calibration software compatible with calibrated digital voltmeters, and feature recording and playback analysis with dynamic signal analyzer modes for auto-power spectrum and histogram analysis. A critical requirement is backward compatibility to open and run legacy Data Physics random and sine test files in .rvc and .svc formats. The system must generate reports exporting graphs, data, test parameters, and images to PDF. Delivery is to NASA Ames Research Center, Building N244, Room 154, Moffett Field, California, with an estimated eight-week lead time from contract award.

Interested contractors must submit written capability statements only—quotes will not be evaluated. All correspondence must reference the notice ID (6a8f76bcc0e319c5cc0f8de6) in the subject line. Oral communications are not acceptable. NAICS code 334519 applies.
