Harvard Bioscience, Inc.'s Amino Acid Analysis Division, operating as Biochrom, was awarded a $108,982.95 firm fixed-price purchase order by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service on September 22, 2025. The contract calls for delivery of a complete amino acid analyzer system to the USDA ARS Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center in North Dakota by December 21, 2025. The deliverables include the analyzer equipped with a column capable of detecting 20 standard amino acids and over 40 amino acid derivatives across multiple sample types, a personal computer with data analysis software, physiological standards, buffer and reagent start-up kits, and an accessory kit. The procurement was conducted through a competitive Request for Quotation evaluated using lowest price technically acceptable criteria, with the final solicitation open to all business sizes after an initial small business set-aside restriction was removed through amendment.

The contract includes comprehensive support requirements such as onsite training, a one-year warranty, and U.S.-based service engineers available during standard business hours with onsite repair capability within two business days. No set-aside designation applies to this award. Biochrom is a division of Harvard Bioscience Inc., a global manufacturer of biomedical research instrumentation that maintains significant federal contracts across multiple agencies including the National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, and Veterans Affairs.
