About Montana Instruments Corporation
Montana Instruments Corporation, a Bozeman, Montana-based manufacturer of cryogenic equipment, delivers specialized optical cryostats, closed-cycle cryogenic systems, and related components to federal research agencies as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders under full-and-open competition with no set-aside designation. The company is a for-profit corporation classified primarily under NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies).
Montana Instruments' customer base concentrates heavily on federal research infrastructure funding. The National Institute of Standards and Technology dominates, accounting for 33 awards valued at $4.1 million combined potential value across optical cryostats, closed-cycle helium systems, mechanical cryocooler assemblies, and maintenance services. The Department of the Navy's Office of Naval Research follows with 26 awards totaling $3 million, centered on Cryostation S200 systems, cryo-optic upgrades, and installation labor. Together these two agencies represent 80 awards (97% of the award count) and $7.1 million of the $8.6 million portfolio. The Department of the Army's Research Development and Engineering Command (8 awards, $508 thousand) and the Air Force Research Laboratory (2 awards, $410 thousand) provide remaining volume, anchored on specialty modules and nano-positioner components for existing Montana Instruments cryostats in government labs. Montana Instruments' footprint is entirely prime work—no subcontracting activity appears in the source.
Recent capability work includes a $293,843 NIST delivery order for a mechanical cryocooler system supporting the Primary Optical Watt Radiometer (August 2025), a $239,442 Office of Naval Research purchase order for an optical cryostat with sub-1.2-Kelvin capability and bidirectional optical access (March 2026), and a $234,390 NIST contract for a closed-loop helium cryostat with compressor and vacuum pump supporting quantum measurement research (July 2025). Maintenance and upgrade work—including sole-source cryostat servicing, cold-head replacement, and magneto-optic module integration—rounds out the portfolio. Activity has declined in recent years: five awards in 2022, seven in 2023, four in 2024, three in 2025, and two in 2026. Only one award ($210,279 NIST purchase order for a new cryostat) faces ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, representing minimal near-term recompete exposure. Montana Instruments operates exclusively in the R&D and metrology space, with no defense production or IT modernization work; its customer concentration on NIST and ONR reflects deep vertical specialization in precision cryogenic measurement infrastructure.
