This is a sole-source combined synopsis/solicitation for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) line upgrade equipment, specifically one Vitronics Soltec Centurion CT820 Reflow Oven and one Electrovert Aquastorm 160 in-line PCB cleaning system. The requirement includes procurement, delivery, installation, calibration, integration, and training, all of which must be completed within 180 calendar days after contract award. The sole-source justification is based on ITW EAE being the original equipment manufacturer with proprietary technical data, software rights, and factory-trained service engineers. Anticipated cybersecurity requirements include CMMC Level 2 (Self), and contractors must be registered in SAM and may need JCP certification for access to export-controlled technical data.

This is a Sources Sought notice for market research, not a solicitation, to identify capable sources for providing one Vitronics Soltec Centurion CT820 Reflow Oven and one Electrovert Aquastorm 160 In-Line PCB Cleaning System, including installation and training. The anticipated contract type is a Commercial Firm-Fixed-Price, with a sole-source acquisition planned for ITW EAE, though all responsible sources may submit a capability statement. Performance of services is located at Point Mugu, CA. No budget amounts or submission timelines are specified in this notice. Responses are voluntary, and no funds are available to cover preparation costs.
