About this award

This is a sole source contract award by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to Applied Spectra Inc., a manufacturer of laser ablation and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) instruments. The $114,026.09 fixed-price purchase order is for the upgrade of the USGS's existing RESOlution-SE Tandem laser ablation system at the Geology Geophysics Geochemistry Science Center in Denver, Colorado. The upgrade includes a new broadband LIBS plasma emission detector, Tandem Prism upgrade, computer control system, Clarity NeXt control software integrated with the existing Geostar software, and an additional laser ablation sample cell for ultra-clean environments. This sole source procurement is justified under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), as the government believes only Applied Spectra can provide the required specialized scientific instrumentation and services. There is no set-aside designation for this contract, and it is not associated with a larger contract vehicle.
