Description

This solicitation seeks a contractor to provide comprehensive maintenance services for a Celestron VF‑Gold telescope (Serial # 2305173) located at the NSWC Crane Warfare Center. The work includes an annual calibration, two emergency‑repair visits with a ≤ 4‑day response time, provision of all parts needed for those repairs, travel expenses, a dedicated support hotline, priority email support, and delivery of any factory‑released software or firmware upgrades. While the solicitation is issued as a competitive RFQ, the government has identified Thermo KeyTek as the sole‑source manufacturer and allows other qualified sources to submit capability statements for consideration, though award discretion remains with the government. The contract is a firm‑fixed‑price, one‑year award (01 Jan 2027 – 31 Dec 2027) and is set‑aside for multiple small‑business categories. • Annual calibration of the Celestron VF‑Gold telescope. • Two emergency repair visits (≤ 4 business days response) with all necessary parts and travel. • Ongoing technical support: exclusive hotline, priority email, and software/firmware updates. • Delivery and acceptance at NSWC Crane, Indiana, under a firm‑fixed‑price arrangement. • Small‑business set‑aside (HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, EDWOSB) and mandatory CMMC Level 1 compliance.

Budget estimate

$50,000 – $150,000

Because the solicitation does not disclose a total award amount, a reasonable ballpark can be derived from the scope: annual calibration, two on‑site emergency repairs, parts procurement, travel, and ongoing technical support for a high‑end scientific telescope. Assuming labor rates of $150‑$250 per hour, parts and travel costs, and a modest profit margin, the contract value is likely in the range of $50,000 to $150,000 for the one‑year period.
