Scientific Data Systems, LLC

Scientific Data Systems, LLC, a Las Cruces, New Mexico-based for-profit manufacturer and sole proprietorship, manufactures and repairs data acquisition units, telemetry systems, and IRIG 106 Chapter 10-compliant test and evaluation equipment for Air Force and Navy aviation platforms, operating primarily as a prime contractor (62% of recent awards) with secondary subcontract engagement on defense prototype development programs.

Scientific Data Systems competes in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint. The company's capability portfolio centers on F-15 data acquisition unit repair, METS-231 acquisition systems with Ethernet telemetry capability, and specialized test instruments for airborne platforms. Representative prime work includes a $463,840 single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Air Force Sustainment Center for F-15 Data Acquisition Unit repair (awarded September 2023, running through September 2026); a $65,910 purchase order from the Air Force for METS-231 data acquisition units with 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet capability and validation software (September 2024); and a $46,590 purchase order from the Air Force Test Center for telemetry data simulators supporting test and evaluation at Eglin Air Force Base (August 2023). Place of performance is Las Cruces, New Mexico, with secondary performance at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida.

Customer concentration is narrow and air-vehicle focused. The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command and its subordinate organizations (Air Force Sustainment Center and Air Force Test Center) account for 83% of awards by count, representing $999 thousand in combined potential value across twenty awards. The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center, NASA Kennedy Space Center, and the Department of the Air Force round out the active customer base. NAICS concentration aligns with the capability set: Other Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Parts Manufacturing (10 awards), Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (5 awards), and Search, Detection, Navigation, and Guidance System Manufacturing (3 awards).

Scientific Data Systems holds a position on the Test and Evaluation Technologies for Ranges Armaments and Spectrum (TETRAS) vehicle, with ten task orders placed. The company also executes work under two Air Force Materiel Command indefinite delivery contracts and one Army contract vehicle. Activity has grown from one award in 2022 to a peak of seven in 2024, with five awards in 2025. Combined obligated dollars across all awards reach $3.3 million against a combined potential value of $1.3 million, reflecting heavy utilization of the Air Force repair IDV. In its subcontractor role, Scientific Data Systems supplies specialized optical encoders, GPS receiver boards, application software, and timing components to Intuitive Research and Technology Corporation on the TETRAS Prototype and Development II program, and provides METS-231 acquisition units to Joint Technical Solutions, LLC on Redstone Army test support services.
