About this award
The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) awarded a $41,325 firm fixed price purchase order to TSI Incorporated for the procurement of four PortaCount Respirator Fit Testers, Model 8040. This specialized equipment will be distributed across three MSHA locations—two units to Birmingham, one to Headquarters, and one to Warrendale—to support the agency's respiratory protection and mine inspector safety programs. The PortaCount fit testers are critical instruments used for conducting quantitative fit testing on various respirator types, including full- and half-facepiece respirators, Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPRs), and Self-Contained Breathing Apparatuses (SCBAs), ensuring that MSHA's authorized representatives receive proper respiratory protection during mine safety inspections. The procurement includes compatible accessories such as carrying cases, AC power supplies, alcohol supplies, and FitPro Ultra Software configured for the Modified CNC Protocols.
This contract was awarded without a set-aside designation and represents a sole-source acquisition justified under Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(c) for specialized equipment. TSI Incorporated, a Minnesota-based manufacturer of precision measurement instruments specializing in aerosol science and occupational safety technologies, was selected as the sole approved vendor given that over 1,000 MSHA authorized representatives require annual fit testing and the agency's existing inventory relies exclusively on TSI PortaCount equipment. Switching vendors would create significant financial and resource burdens across MSHA's district and field offices. The contract has an ultimate completion date of August 18, 2025, with delivery required within 30 days after receipt of order.
