The U.S. Air Force intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract for a High Finesse WS8-2 wavemeter package for the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) at Wright-Patterson AFB. The requirement specifies one wavemeter package with an eight-channel switch and rubidium reference source, and identifies Toptica Photonics Inc. as the only known source able to meet the precision requirements. Responsible sources may submit capability information or an exception to the sole-source approach by 1:00 p.m. local time on November 6, 2026; this is an intent-to-sole-source special notice, not a request for competitive quotations.
