This special notice announces the Department of the Navy's intent to award a sole-source purchase order to Keyence Corporation of America for a VHX-X1 fully integrated digital microscope system. Fleet Readiness Center Southeast requires the system for advanced materials inspection and analysis, including real-time 3D composition, shadow-effect imaging, automated teaching functions, and a trade-in of existing equipment. This is a contract opportunity rather than a grant program, and responsible sources may submit capability statements by September 9, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. EDT.
