Tektronix, Inc.

Tektronix, Inc., doing business as Tektronix, manufactures electronic test and measurement instruments—oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and related precision equipment—and delivers calibration, repair, and technical support services to federal agencies predominantly as a prime contractor on full-and-open, unrestricted procurements. The company operates under no SBA set-aside designations and competes in the open market across defense, civilian, and research agencies.

Tektronix holds a dominant position in federal test-equipment and calibration services. Over the past five years, the company has received 8,323 total awards with combined potential value of $1.45 billion and combined obligated dollars of $656.3 million. Recent award velocity has been consistent: 30 awards in FY2022, 36 in FY2023, 58 in FY2024, 44 in FY2025, and 8 in the first two months of FY2026. The vendor delivers across 181 distinct federal agencies with no material concentration risk—customer diversity is unusually broad for a single-product manufacturer. The prime-versus-sub split is extreme: 100% of awards are prime (8,284 awards), with only 39 subcontract positions across the entire footprint, indicating Tektronix competes directly as a prime and does not rely on subcontractor capacity or teaming to win work.

Customer concentration by dollar value reveals Naval Sea Systems Command as the dominant anchor: 379 awards with $1.03 billion in combined potential value represent 71% of all disclosed potential value. This dominance reflects Tektronix's role as a critical supplier under the $1 billion multiple-award blanket purchase agreement for calibration services supporting the Missile Defense Agency's test and evaluation programs, awarded August 1, 2022, with ultimate completion July 31, 2027. Tektronix also holds a $6.7 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for professional calibration services (awarded October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2027) and a $2 million single-award BPA with Naval Sea Systems Command for calibration services at Crane, Indiana (awarded March 30, 2026, through March 31, 2031). A recent $1 million single-award BPA with Naval Sea Systems Command (June 17, 2025, through June 16, 2030) supports Missile Defense Agency test and evaluation. The Department of the Navy in aggregate accounts for the lion's share of both award count and value; the Department of the Air Force ranks second by award count (1,579 awards) but carries minimal disclosed potential value in the source data.

Tektronix's vehicle position reflects its role as a trusted OEM supplier. The vendor holds positions on two federal supply schedules carrying significant task-order volume: Federal Supply Schedule GS24F0819A (958 task orders, $45.4 million combined potential value) and the Multiple Award Schedule (154 task orders, $16.8 million combined potential value). Additional GSA schedule vehicles (GS00S27487, GS00S45197) support equipment procurement and calibration services. An indefinite-delivery contract N0010415DD007 accounts for 109 task orders with $3 million combined potential value. The preponderance of recent awards are purchase orders and BPA calls drawn against existing parent vehicles rather than new IDV awards, indicating high utilization of established contract relationships.

Work scope across the portfolio divides between equipment sales and calibration services. Equipment sales represent the largest volume by transaction count, spanning oscilloscopes (digital phosphor, 4-series, 5-series mixed signal, portable spectrum analyzers), signal generators, waveform generators, and specialized test systems (the 4200-series Keithley sourcemeter units, under Tektronix ownership, appear frequently in Defense Microelectronics Activity and Naval Sea Systems Command awards). Calibration services dominate by dollar value and anchor repeat business—hundreds of $25,000 BPA calls from Naval Sea Systems Command for calibration of customer-owned Tektronix and non-Tektronix equipment flow through the $1 billion NAVSEA BPA and the $2 million single-award BPA. Repair services—oscilloscope repair, arbitrary waveform generator repair, spectrum analyzer refurbishment—appear across Office of Naval Research, Naval Supply Systems Command, and Naval Sea Systems Command awards, typically in the $4,000 to $70,000 range per order. Recent high-value awards include a $675,220 digital phosphor oscilloscope system to Office of Naval Research (June 27, 2025), a $232,827 Tektronix AWG hardware and software order from Naval Sea Systems Command (February 16, 2023), and a $202,916 Keithley test-system maintenance and calibration contract from Defense Microelectronics Activity (April 23, 2025, through April 22, 2029).

Service Contract Inventory data captures only a partial view of Tektronix's federal footprint. SCI-reportable invoiced revenue (service contracts above $150,000) totaled $1.5 million across FY2022–FY2024: $464 thousand in FY2022 (1.3 FTEs), $1.1 million in FY2023 (3.4 FTEs), and $0 in FY2024 on reported prime contracts. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime service contracts ran a median of $165.35 per hour, with the 10th percentile at $155.85 per hour and the 90th percentile at $174.85 per hour, reflecting skilled labor and technician rates typical of calibration and field-service delivery. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subs performed 0% of total contractor hours, indicating Tektronix delivers calibration and technical labor with its own workforce. The small SCI footprint reflects the vendor's business model: most federal revenue flows through equipment sales (excluded from SCI) and short-duration BPA calls below or near the reporting threshold, neither of which appear in the Service Contract Inventory.

Tektronix subcontracts to major primes on specialized testing and development programs. Named recent subcontract relationships include Booz Allen Hamilton (RDT&E engineering and technical support, August 28, 2025), Raytheon Company (Close-In Weapon System test equipment, June 21, 2025), Lockheed Martin Corporation (B-2 countermeasure receiver repair and calibration, January 3, 2024), Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (B-1 legacy platform and large-aircraft infrared countermeasures engineering, October 14, 2024), Leidos, Inc. (high-power electromagnetics research development and plasma-science testing, September 25, 2024), and The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory (technical support for test and evaluation programs, July and August 2025). Sub-engagement is minimal by transaction count but strategically important: it reflects Tektronix's role as a subject-matter expert and original-equipment-manufacturer repair authority embedded in larger defense contractors' supply chains. Examples include oscilloscope repair for Fluor Marine Propulsion (Naval Nuclear Laboratory operations support, July 9, 2025) and miscellaneous signal analyzers and oscilloscopes for Valkyrie Enterprises, Bell Textron, and joint-venture partners executing Special Operations Command and Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft programs.

Corporate structure places Tektronix as a wholly owned subsidiary or operating entity of Advanced Sterilization Products Italia S.R.L., an Italian parent registered in SAM. Tektronix operates under its own SAM registration (UEI K9G2C434ARK8, registered since 2002) with headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. The named subsidiaries Sonix, Inc. and Maxtek Components Corporation do not appear in the federal award data as distinct awardees and likely represent inactive or non-federal entities. Tektronix's federal identity and contracting authority are distinct from its parent and subsidiaries; the vendor competes and performs as Tektronix, Inc. across all disclosed awards.

Recompete risk in the next twenty-four months is minimal: only four awards with combined potential value of $2.7 million face ultimate completion within that window, indicating stable, long-lived vehicle positions and low disruption risk from near-term expiration. The vendor's high award velocity, dominance in Naval Sea Systems Command dollars, and deep penetration of both equipment-supply and calibration-service markets position it as a critical, embedded supplier for federal test-equipment infrastructure across the defense and civilian research enterprise.
