About the company

Zygo Corporation, a subsidiary of Ametek Inc., manufactures advanced optical metrology systems and precision optical components for federal agencies as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards), competing on full-and-open basis without set-aside designations. Headquartered in Middlefield, Connecticut, Zygo operates across multiple NAICS codes centered on optical instrument manufacturing (primary NAICS 333313 — Optical Instrument and Lens Manufacturing, representing 69 awards) and laboratory instrument manufacturing, with federal procurement activity spanning optical interferometers, white-light profilers, optical flats, objective lenses, and related calibration and maintenance services.

Zygo's customer concentration spans defense, science, and standards agencies. The top five funding customers account for 41% of awards by count: the Department of the Air Force (34 awards), the Department of the Navy (28 awards), NASA Goddard Space Center (23 awards, $735 thousand combined potential value), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (21 awards, $1.3 million combined potential value), and the Office of Naval Research (20 awards, $921 thousand combined potential value). By potential value, NIST dominates at $1.3 million across 21 awards, followed by NASA's Shared Services Center at $1.1 million across 18 awards and the Office of Naval Research at $921 thousand across 20 awards. Recent named work includes a $106.7 thousand NIST Verifire interferometer purchase order (September 2026, Middlefield performance), a $286 thousand sole-source NASA Marshall Space Flight Center interferometer contract for space-based telescope calibration (September 2023), a $361 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command Verifire acquisition system and DynaPhase software package (September 2023), and a $318.6 thousand NIST white-light interferometer with 3D coherence scanning interferometry (June 2023). Activity has been modest and stable — seven awards in 2022, six in 2023, eight in 2024, six in 2025, and two year-to-date in 2026 — with only one award ($107 thousand combined potential value) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months.

Zygo operates as a subcontractor to prime contractors on higher-value defense and aerospace sensor programs. Recent sub work includes supply of a 4-inch Verifire HD Interferometer and optical calibration components to ManTech TSG-2 Joint Venture for Naval Air Systems Command's maritime patrol aircraft modernization (March 2025); provision of 2-inch and 6-inch Verifire interferometer systems and commissioning to Lockheed Martin for an extended-performance contract (February 2025); supply of a 6-inch DynaFiz optical system to Teledyne Scientific & Imaging for the Air Force's STAR-FISH advanced research program (November 2024); optics refurbishment services to HII Mission Technologies for laser window grinding and polishing (September 2024); mirror and window components to Goodrich Corporation for the Bahrain MS-110 retrofit program (July 2024); Verifire system controller and RAID equipment to Peraton for NASA GSFC environmental testing and integration services (July 2024); and optical components to Raytheon for the F-22 Sensor Enhancements program (June 2025). Zygo also serves as a subcontractor to MIT Lincoln Laboratory on federally funded research and development center operations (August 2025). Top parent vehicles carry minimal traffic — FA862018D3014 (Air Force) and four single-order Army contracts (DAAH, DAAK, F047, F096 series) — reflecting Zygo's transactional, full-and-open purchase-order model rather than reliance on standing IDIQs or BPAs. The vendor does not compete under SBA set-asides and holds no recorded participation in government-wide acquisition contracts or multiple-award schedules in the current award record. Combined obligated dollars ($23.3 million) exceed combined potential value ($10.1 million) by 230%, indicating high historical obligation levels relative to recent award pricing.
