About the company
Gamdan Optics, Inc., a woman-owned small disadvantaged business manufacturer of nonlinear optical crystals based in San Jose, California, operates as a prime contractor on federal research and development contracts and as a subcontractor on defense laser and electronic warfare programs. The company competes under small-business set-asides across its prime footprint and holds a Subchapter S corporate structure with primary business classified under optical-crystal manufacturing.
Gamdan's capability portfolio centers on the design, development, and manufacture of specialized nonlinear optical crystals for high-energy laser applications. Representative prime work includes a $1.2 million firm-fixed-price contract awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory on March 27, 2026, for development of KGD(WO4)2 crystals for solid-state Raman laser applications, extending through March 2028 under a total small-business set-aside. The company also received a federal grant from the Department of Energy's Office of Science (award date July 10, 2023, completion September 9, 2026) for seamless aperture scaling and enlargement of LBO crystals for high-energy laser applications. In its subcontractor role, Gamdan supplies solid-state laser coatings (high laser-induced damage threshold dual-side DBAR coatings at 1030/515 nanometers) to BAE Systems Space & Mission Systems on laser-system development and delivers optical components in support of threat assessment and aircraft protection electronic warfare activities under a Leidos prime contract.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of the Air Force — the Air Force Research Laboratory accounts for three awards and the combined potential value of all activity. The National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy Office of Science round out the customer set. Gamdan places work under the Air Force's Indefinite Delivery Contract FA865021D1014. Over the past four years, award activity has been episodic (one award in 2019, one in 2023, two in 2024, one in 2026) with combined obligated dollars reaching $3 million against $1.2 million in combined potential value. Two awards carrying $1.2 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure in that window.
