The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from sources capable of providing Optical Frequency Comb Systems to support metrology research for materials purity, properties, and provenance. The systems should perform broadband spectroscopy and spectroradiometer calibrations across the mid-wave and far-wave infrared, generate broadband spectral reference data, evaluate spectrometer performance, interrogate gas samples, and be customizable to meet NIST specifications. This posting is a Sources Sought / Request for Information to identify capable sources, not a grant program.

The Defense Logistics Agency Energy issued a Sources Sought notice to conduct market research for a bulk fuels procurement of Aviation Turbine Fuel (JA1) for delivery in Qatar, estimating 140,000,000 gallons with a period of performance from 2027-01-01 through 2027-12-30. The notice requests capability statements from interested vendors (including authorization from Qatex if applicable) to be received by February 12, 2026 at 1:00 PM Fort Belvoir Time and is a Pre-Solicitation (sources sought) rather than a formal solicitation. The government indicates an intent to award non-competitively under FAR 6.103-2 to Qatex Limited as the sole authorized source for pipeline delivery but will use responses for market research and potential competitive alternatives.
