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.

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, specifically the 10th Contracting Squadron at the USAF Academy, is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of providing, delivering, and installing a hyperbaric chamber system. This sources sought notice supports the Dean of Faculty Department of Biology and seeks to identify small businesses and other qualified entities for a potential firm-fixed-price contract. The required system is a commercially available or modified-commercial unit designed to protect samples from room air exposure while allowing for precise control of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide concentrations.
The hyperbaric chamber system must feature a dynamic O2 and CO2 controller with specific accuracy ranges, pod-based sensors, and graphical data logging capabilities. The hardware requirements include a polycarbonate and stainless steel enclosure with at least two shelves, sized to fit within most third-party incubators. The performance location is the USAF Academy in Colorado, and all deliveries will be made FOB destination. This requirement is classified under NAICS 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 must include a capability statement detailing corporate profiles, technical specifications, and past performance. Interested parties must also provide estimated manufacturing and delivery lead times and identify if the products are available through existing GSA or government-wide acquisition contracts. Submissions are directed to the primary point of contact, Danielle Hyde, under solicitation number FY26_USAFA_DFBI_Hyperbaric_Chamber.
