The Department of the Interior US Geological Survey (USGS) awarded an indefinite delivery contract to RTI Laboratories Inc., a small business contractor, to provide chemical and geotechnical analysis services. The 5-year, $25 million contract covers the analysis of environmental samples using EPA and other standard methods, with quality control and data deliverables. RTI Laboratories has received over $8 million in task orders from USGS to date for this work, which supports the agency's research and monitoring programs.
The original USGS solicitation sought general chemical analytical services from small businesses, to be priced on a fixed-unit basis for over 100 testing methods. Key requirements included capabilities in metals, anions, nutrients, mercury, cyanide, and volatile organic compound analysis using techniques like ICP, ICP-MS, ion chromatography, and GC-MS. RTI Laboratories also holds several other indefinite delivery contracts with the Army Corps of Engineers and Military Sealift Command for related environmental and materials testing services, demonstrating its qualifications to meet the USGS requirements.
