About Zurich Instruments AG

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Zurich Instruments AG, doing business as Zurich Instruments LTD, manufactures high-precision electronic test and measurement equipment—lock-in amplifiers, impedance analyzers, quantum system controllers, and arbitrary waveform generators—for federal research agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open purchase orders, with no set-aside participation. The Switzerland-headquartered foreign-owned manufacturer operates as a subsidiary of Rohde & Schwarz GMBH & CO. Kommanditgesellschaft and has maintained SAM registration since December 2009.

Customer concentration is extreme and stable. The National Institute of Standards and Technology dominates the footprint with 58 awards totaling $2.2 million in combined potential value—representing 64% of all prime awards by count and 61% by dollar value. The next four customers collectively account for 18 awards and $1.0 million: the Department of the Navy's Office of Naval Research (6 awards, $227 thousand), Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (5 awards, $258 thousand), the Air Force Research Laboratory (4 awards, $381 thousand), and the Navy's Bureau of Naval Personnel (3 awards, $72 thousand). All sixteen agencies in Zurich Instruments' customer base are research, defense, or standards-setting entities; no civilian operating agencies or contractor support organizations place orders. Award denominations are consistently small—most purchase orders range from $12 thousand to $110 thousand, with the largest single award reaching $109,210 for a microwave lock-in amplifier to NIST.

Zurich Instruments competes exclusively on full-and-open basis with no small-business set-asides across the entire portfolio. NAICS concentration runs to instrument manufacturing: 41 awards fall under Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals, and 33 under Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing. PSC coding mirrors the product line—Laboratory Equipment and Supplies account for 45 awards, Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments for 16, and Amplifiers for 13. Activity has been episodic but consistent: five awards in 2021, nine in 2022, eleven in 2024, four in 2025, and one year-to-date in 2026. Only one award carries a recompete exposure within the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $61 thousand). Zurich Instruments operates as a prime on 89 of 90 awards (99% of portfolio); the single subcontract award was issued February 2024 through Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory for DARPA research program support services generator work.
