About Glimpse Engineering, Inc.
Glimpse Engineering, Inc., a for-profit company headquartered in Somerville, Massachusetts, conducts computed tomography (CT) scanning and advanced computational analysis of lithium-ion battery cells for NASA as a prime contractor. The vendor operates exclusively in full-and-open competition with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint. Glimpse's three recent awards total $138 thousand in combined potential value, all issued by NASA's Shared Services Center as sole-source purchase orders between July 2025 and February 2026, with work performed at its Somerville facility under NAICS 541715 (Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences).
Glimpse's capability portfolio centers on specialized microfocus CT scanning hardware and proprietary defect-detection algorithms tailored to aerospace battery qualification. Representative work includes a $49.6 thousand sole-source award (August 2025) for delivery of a microfocus CT scanner system with cloud-based analysis portal and four optional one-year extensions to support NASA Johnson Space Center research; a $50.8 thousand sole-source purchase order (July 2025) for CT scanning of 200 cylindrical lithium-ion cells and proprietary computational defect analysis supporting the Starliner program; and a $38 thousand purchase order (February 2026) for CT scanning at 16-micrometer resolution and advanced algorithmic analysis of approximately 200 Panasonic NCR18650GA battery cells to identify defects including can wall thickness variations, jellyroll buckling, core circularity issues, electrode overhang, housing damage, and metallic contamination.
Customer concentration is absolute — NASA's Shared Services Center accounts for 100% of the vendor's recent federal award footprint and combined potential value. The vendor holds no seats on government-wide vehicles, agency IDIQs, or BPAs in the source data, and the source does not indicate any subcontracting activity or prime relationships with larger contractors. Activity is nascent, with two awards in 2025 and one in early 2026, and no recompete signals are present given the short contract timelines and early stage of the relationship.
