VAPOUR GENERATOR

The Department of the Army, MICC-Dugway Proving Ground, is issuing solicitation W911626QA022 for the procurement of a vapor generator. This requirement is classified under NAICS code 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, and PSC code 6630, CHEMICAL ANALYSIS INSTRUMENTS. There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The equipment is mission-critical for the SMART SEED Innovation Award project and is required to characterize the sensitivity and response time of NDSI electronic vapor sensors under variable temperature and humidity conditions.

The vapor generator must provide highly regulated, low-concentration chemical vapor output to meet a testing threshold for agent vapor at 10 parts per billion. To ensure the validation of sensor algorithms and performance data, the procurement includes a corrosive gas upgrade to protect internal components from chemical agents and simulants. Additional required components include a diffusion tube, diffusion tube membranes and gaskets, and a permeation tube kit. These specifications allow the agency to precisely control vapor generator output across targeted ranges while preventing damage from corrosive materials.

Performance will occur in Utah, and the response deadline for this combined synopsis/solicitation is June 8, 2026. The procurement documentation consists of four attachments, including the Scope of Work, Evaluation Criteria, Evaluation Factors, and the formal solicitation. Jeremy Macdougall is the designated point of contact for this requirement.
