View more2.0 Background and Requirement Description
The US Air Force Academy has a requirement for a commercially available or modified-commercial Hyperbaric Chamber System to support the Dean of Faculty Department of Biology.
The anticipated core requirements for the system include, but are not limited to:
SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
1. Dynamic O2 and CO2 Controller with the following requirements:
a. O2 Control Range: 0.1% - 99.9% with accuracy of ± 1%
b. CO2 Control Range: 0.1% - 20% with accuracy of ± 1.5%
c. Gas control resolution of 0.1%
d. Digital Controller that displays process values and provides interface to control gas infusion
e. Dynamic programming and profile creation enabling multiple setpoints, ranges and number of cycles
f. Pod-based sensor that monitors/measures conditions within chamber (discussed below) and communicates to the gas controller to maintain desired gas concentrations
g. Connections for O2, N2 and CO2. Gas source delivered through compressed gas cylinders
h. Bi-directional control action with O2 gas infusion for raising O2 and nitrogen gas infusion for lowering O2.
i. Bi-directional control action with CO2 gas infusion for raising CO2 and nitrogen gas infusion for lowering CO2.
j. Graphical trending and data logging capabilities
2. System Chamber with the following requirements:
a. Enclosure with a polycarbonate and stainless steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance
b. Enclosure is compatible with the gas controller listed above
c. Enclosure with 2 shelves, each shelf has a minimum dimension of 12.75" W × 10.25" D
d. Enclosure dimensions are no larger than 14"W x 13"D x 6"H
e. Enclosure protects samples of interest from room air exposure/environmental instability and permits the precise control of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide gas concentrations
f. Enclosure fits within most third-party incubators
3.0 Requested Information (Capability Statement)
Interested parties are requested to submit a Capability Statement demonstrating their ability to fulfill this requirement. Please include the following information structured in your response:
1. Corporate Profile - Company Name, Address, CAGE Code, UEI Number, and Point of Contact (Name, Phone, Email).
2. Business Size - Business size standard and socioeconomic status under NAICS 339112.
3. Technical Capability - A brief description of the hyperbaric chamber(s) your company manufactures or distributes that meet or exceed the requirements in Section 2.0. Include spec sheets if available.

5. Supply Chain / Lead Time - Estimated manufacturing and delivery lead time from date of contract award.
6. GSA / GWAC Vehicles - Identify if your product is available on a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) or other existing government-wide acquisition contracts.
4.0 Response Instructions
Responses must be submitted via email to the Contracting Office Point of Contact (POC) listed below.
Disclaimer: The Government will not reimburse any costs associated with the preparation or submission of responses to this Sources Sought notice.
The Department of the Air Force is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of providing, delivering, and installing a hyperbaric chamber system for the Dean of Faculty Department of Biology at the USAF Academy in Colorado. This sources sought notice, issued under solicitation number FY26_USAFA_DFBI_Hyperbaric_Chamber, seeks to determine the availability of small businesses and other qualified entities to provide a commercially available or modified-commercial system. The government intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract for the equipment with delivery scheduled as FOB destination.
The required system must include a dynamic O2 and CO2 controller with specific gas control ranges and accuracy, a pod-based sensor for monitoring chamber conditions, and data logging capabilities. The system chamber must be constructed of polycarbonate and stainless steel, featuring at least two shelves and dimensions no larger than 14"W x 13"D x 6"H to ensure it fits within standard third-party incubators. The enclosure must protect samples from room air exposure while permitting precise control of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide concentrations.
The acquisition is classified under NAICS code 339112 for Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing and PSC 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. Responses to this notice are due by June 17, 2026, and should include a capability statement, corporate profile, and technical specifications. Danielle Hyde serves as the primary point of contact for this requirement located at the USAF Academy.
