Infrared Light Government Bids & RFPs

This is a Request for Information (RFI) from PDM SCIE seeking technologies and products for individual signature management. The focus is on mitigation from VIS, NIR, and LWIR sensors, with a secondary focus on MWIR, radar, and SWIR. PDM SCIE is interested in modular, lightweight, durable, and effective concealment solutions across multiple spectral bands and diverse operational environments. Specific form factors include overgarments, hide sites, headcovers, hasty solutions, and extremity concealment. The solutions should reduce the probability of detection from ground and aerial sensors, be easy to use, compatible with existing combat loads, durable, field reparable, and effective in at least one operational environment (woodland, jungle, arctic, or desert). Vendors are requested to submit a white paper response detailing company information, capabilities, technical specifications, manufacturing, and cost. Product demonstration models (PDMs) are optional and must be submitted by June 30, 2026. Questions for clarification are due by June 5, 2026. This RFI does not constitute a solicitation.

The procurement includes instruments and laboratory equipment, infrared assemblies, sub-assemblies, components, computers, computer assemblies, computer systems, and components designed for use with instruments and laboratory equipment. The quantity required is 23 units. Delivery is to W1A8 DLA Distribution within **** days After Delivery Order. An approved source is **** **** must be submitted electronically. Hard copies of the solicitation, specifications, plans, or drawings are not available. All responsible sources may submit a quote, which will be considered if timely received.

This is a combined sources sought notice and notice of intent to sole source for a Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS). The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Sensor Science Division requires this FTS for a new program to advance measurement science for illicit drug identification and quantification. The FTS is mission-critical for building a portable drug sensing imaging system to detect drugs in real-time, as directed by the TRANQ Research Act of 2023. Key specifications for the FTS include: - Continuous spectral coverage over the 2 µm to 11 µm wavelength range. - High spectral resolution of 0. 5 cm?¹ or better. - Compatibility with a user-supplied light source (laser or incoherent) and MCT cooled detector. - Compact design (18 cm x 16 cm x 8 cm without detector). - Peak detectivity greater than 5x10¹?. - Wavenumber repeatability of 10 ppm or better. - Scan frequency at 4 Hz or better. - Temperature-stabilized reference laser. NIST is seeking information from potential sources capable of providing such an FTS. If no alternate sources are identified, the government intends to issue a sole source award to Bruker Scientific, LLC. Respondents are requested to provide company information, details of their equipment that meets the objectives, technical specifications, reseller status (if applicable), performance capabilities, customization options, any limitations in meeting specifications, suggestions for improving competitiveness, manufacturing location, business size (small or other than small), and alternative NAICS codes if deemed more appropriate. Additionally, respondents should describe available services such as installation, training, and maintenance, standard terms and conditions of sale (including delivery time, FOB shipping, warranty details, manuals, and cleanup), facility renovation services, published pricing, and availability on federal supply schedules. Customer references are also requested. Questions regarding this notice should be submitted via email to the primary and secondary points of contact at least 5 days prior to the response date. This notice is for market research purposes only and does not constitute a commitment to issue a solicitation or award a contract. All information provided will be used for market research purposes. Respondents are advised that the government is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt or provide feedback.
