The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to Carl Zeiss Industrial Quality Solutions for Hardware and Software Maintenance Agreements supporting government-owned Zeiss metrology equipment. This non-competitive action is justified by proprietary data restrictions, software copyrights, and specialized OEM calibration requirements. The procurement follows FAR Part 12 and Part 13 simplified acquisition procedures, with NAICS code 811210 and a small business size standard of $34 million, targeting a large business.
