Contract Opportunity Analysis

The Naval Research Laboratory, part of the Department of the Navy, intends to award a sole-source purchase order to Bruker Scientific LLC for repair of a Bruker Autoflex sample tray. The work is limited to that repair requirement and is being handled as a special notice rather than a request for competitive proposals, with no solicitation package available. The purchase will use Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR 13.106-1(b) because it does not exceed the $250,000 simplified acquisition threshold, and any interested party must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Responses are due by June 3, 2026 at 1700 hours, and correspondence should reference Notice of Intent number N00173-26-Q-1301371041 in the subject line.
