About the company
California Nanotechnologies, Inc., doing business as Formely Omni-Lite E-Form Technologies, manufactures and supplies spark plasma sintering (SPS) systems and related advanced materials processing equipment to federal defense and research agencies as a prime contractor under full-and-open and small business set-aside competitions. The company is a for-profit organization based in Cerritos, California, competing without SBA certifications across a narrow but specialized technical niche.
The vendor's federal footprint consists of six awards with combined potential value of $658 thousand, all placed as prime contracts since 2011. Activity is sporadic — one award per year on average since 2019 — with recent work concentrated in SPS equipment supply and trials. Representative awards include a $314,500 total small business set-aside definitive contract from the Army Corps of Engineers' Engineer Research and Development Center (July 2026) for a SPS2000 spark plasma sintering system with specified operating pressures of 30, 50, or 70 kN, maximum temperature of 2500 degrees Celsius, and 8-channel data acquisition; a $193,450 full-and-open purchase order from Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (August 2024) for one SPS system with tooling, installation, and training to the Army Research Laboratory in Adelphi, Maryland; and a $20,000 full-and-open purchase order from the Office of Naval Research (January 2025) for SPS trials in support of the Naval Research Laboratory base research program.
Customer concentration is diffuse across defense research organizations. The Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center anchors the largest single award at $315 thousand (48% of combined potential value), followed by Army Research, Development and Engineering Command at $193 thousand and the Navy's Naval Education and Training Command at $71 thousand. No single customer accounts for more than half the portfolio; the top five customers span Army, Navy, NASA, and research laboratory commands. The vendor operates solely as a prime contractor (100% of awards) with no visible subcontract activity in the source data. NAICS and PSC posture reflects the equipment and research services mix — Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and Research and Development in Nanotechnology dominate the category concentration, with PSC codes emphasizing laboratory equipment supply and basic research services.
