Data Physics Corporation

Data Physics Corporation, doing business as DP, manufactures and services vibration testing equipment, dynamic signal analyzers, electrodynamic shakers, power amplifiers, and related signal processing software for federal agencies as a prime contractor (90% of recent awards), with a secondary footprint as a subcontractor on defense and space programs. The Riverside, California–based for-profit corporation competes on full-and-open federal procurements with no SBA set-aside designations across its prime work; the company is not a certified small disadvantaged business, 8(a) participant, or other set-aside category holder.

DP's federal customer base concentrates in defense and aerospace testing infrastructure. The top five funding agencies by award count and potential value account for 56% to 77% of recent activity, led by the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (33 awards, $3.6 million combined potential value) and the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center (28 awards, $1.7 million). The Department of the Army Test and Evaluation Command ranks second by potential value at $2.3 million across 14 awards, while NASA's Glenn Research Center holds $1.4 million across 20 awards. The Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command completes the top five. Navy and Army test ranges drive both volume and dollars — a structural concentration in defense vibration qualification and shock-response testing.

DP's recent prime work exemplifies the portfolio: a $342,750 replacement power amplifier for NASA Glenn Research Center's Structural Dynamics Lab awarded November 2022, a $257,723 power amplifier switcher for electrodynamic shakers to support future C60 shaker replacement at NASA Glenn (awarded September 2026, firm fixed price, sole source), a $147,000 order from Naval Sea Systems Command for three Data Physics 900 Series signal analysis systems to support Columbia Class Environmental Qualification Testing at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Newport (awarded June 2022), and a $68,840 two-unit 12-channel data acquisition system for NASA Glenn awarded September 2024. Across awards, DP holds the top NAICS position in Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals (96 awards) and leads the Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments PSC category (27 awards). Work is performed primarily in Riverside, California, with on-site commissioning, repair, and alignment services at customer test facilities including NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport.

DP places task orders under the Scientific Equipment and Services vehicle (21 orders, $777 thousand combined potential value) and the Federal Supply Schedule GS24F1428C (3 orders), neither of which is an IDIQor GWAC — indicating a primarily transactional, spot-buy relationship with federal customers rather than blanket-order positioning. Recompete exposure is minimal: only two awards totaling $322 thousand reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months. In its subcontractor role, DP supplies vibration testing hardware and software to Triad National Security, LLC on multiple Los Alamos National Laboratory competition contracts for electrodynamic shaker systems, tensor hardware, data acquisition systems, and software networking peripherals (four sub awards between February and September 2026). DP also subcontracts to BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services Inc. on the Instrumentation Range Support Program III, delivering Abacus 900 series modular signal analysis systems and software analysis packages (two sub awards in 2025); to Lockheed Martin Corporation on Trident Production and Deployed Systems Support for power amplifiers and service calls (four sub awards in 2023–2024); and to Astrion Group, LLC for Abacus 900 series modules and annual software support contracts (three sub awards in 2024). The subcontract footprint is materiel-focused — DP functions as a component and equipment supplier to primes managing larger defense system integration and test-range operations, not as a services subcontractor.
