About the company

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer Inc., doing business as Hottinger Baldwin Measurements Inc., is a foreign-owned manufacturer of data acquisition systems, vibration analysis tools, acoustic measurement devices, and specialized test and measurement software that operates as a prime contractor (90% of recent awards) and subcontractor across the Department of Defense, NASA, and civilian federal agencies. The company is a subsidiary of Particle Measuring Systems, Inc. and competes on full-and-open basis without set-asides, holding a $32.5 million Federal Supply Schedule (Multiple Award Schedule) contract through July 2029 and two single-award Navy IDVs totaling approximately $500 thousand for maintenance and calibration services.

Over the past five years, Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer has received 361 total awards (prime and sub combined) with $71.6 million in combined potential value across 60 distinct federal customer agencies. Activity grew from 2022 to 2023 (29 to 49 awards annually) but has contracted since, with 12 awards in 2026 year-to-date. The vendor's customer concentration skews toward naval aviation and spacecraft acoustics work. NASA's Shared Services Center leads by award count with 64 orders ($2.5 million combined potential value), primarily BK Connect software maintenance and licensing renewals supporting Johnson Space Center's Acoustics Office. The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center ranks first by potential value with 44 awards ($3.5 million), reflecting maintenance, repair, and calibration of proprietary Perception software and Genesis data acquisition systems used in naval aviation development and testing. Naval Sea Systems Command places 38 awards ($1.2 million), Naval Supply Systems Command 11 awards ($1.7 million), and the Army's Research Development and Engineering Command 18 awards ($1.1 million) — together accounting for roughly 49% of all awards. Work spans vibration shakers, accelerometers (mechanical and electronic), high-speed data acquisition modules (LAN-XI and QuantumX product lines), force and strain gauges, acoustic cameras, microphones, power analyzers, and proprietary software for fatigue analysis (nCode Glyphworks) and reliability engineering (ReliaSoft). Recent representative prime awards include a $718 thousand vibration shaker (V8900) from Naval Air Systems Command (January 2023), a $472 thousand repair and calibration support contract from Naval Air Warfare Center (September 2025), a $409 thousand equipment and software license renewal from the Army Corps of Engineers (September 2024), and a $353 thousand Bruel & Kjaer LAN-XI data acquisition system from NASA (July 2023). All prime awards are commercial-item, firm-fixed-price purchases under FAR Part 12 or Part 13 authority; the majority cite sole-source justification under FAR 12.102(a) or 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) when the government determines Hottinger is the exclusive provider of required proprietary software or hardware.

The Federal Supply Schedule anchors 25 task orders ($1.1 million potential value) across multiple agencies; delivery orders under this vehicle average $35 thousand to $115 thousand for individual equipment procurements. Place of performance centers on Marlborough, Massachusetts (corporate headquarters) but includes NASA Glenn Research Center, Johnson Space Center, and numerous Navy and Army installations; the vendor manufactures products in Denmark, Germany, Finland, the United Kingdom, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Taiwan, and the United States.

As a subcontractor, Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer supplies data acquisition systems, vibration shakers, LDS coil assemblies, and calibration services to Lockheed Martin (submarine propulsion systems and Trident programs), Fluor Marine Propulsion (Naval Nuclear Laboratory operations), Bell Textron (Future Vertical Lift aircraft development), BAE Systems Technology Solutions (instrumentation range support), Honeywell Federal Manufacturing (National Security Campus operations), and General Dynamics Information Technology (global security engineering supply chain). Subcontract work spans submarine testing, missile guidance, helicopter development, and nuclear facility operations — all requiring precision measurement equipment.

Nine awards ($514 thousand combined potential value) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and face recompete. The vendor's technical footprint aligns with NAICS 334515 (Diagnostic, Measuring and Testing Equipment), 513210 (Software Publishers), and PSC DA (Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments), reflecting a portfolio centered on instrumentation, software licensing, and calibration services for aerospace, defense, and research applications where proprietary hardware-software integration creates barriers to competition.
