Description

Florida State University is seeking a qualified vendor to supply a femtosecond laser system for use in its experimental aerodynamics research program. The procurement is conducted via a sealed Invitation to Bid (ITB) and will result in a contract/purchase order for the equipment. The laser must meet the university’s performance specifications for ultra‑short‑pulse operation and be suitable for high‑speed flow testing in aerospace applications. • Deliver a complete femtosecond laser system (hardware, software, and integration) that meets FSU’s experimental aerodynamics requirements. • Provide installation, on‑site training, and initial technical support to university staff. • Include warranties, spare parts, and a maintenance plan for the life of the equipment.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

No contract value is disclosed. A femtosecond laser system suitable for research typically ranges from half a million to a few million dollars, depending on power, pulse width, and ancillary equipment. Assuming a mid‑range system with installation and support, the award could be roughly $500,000 – $2,000,000.
