About this file
This document is a detailed pricing sheet for laboratory testing services of dietary supplements. The spreadsheet covers an extensive range of testing categories including vitamins and related components, minerals, botanicals, physical testing, and proximates, with estimated testing quantities for 2025-2027. Each category includes specific ingredients or tests, associated testing methods (such as HPLC, LC-MS, ICP), measurement units, minimum significant figures, and placeholders for pricing per ingredient/test and total costs.
The pricing sheet is part of a solicitation (RFQ 1232SA25Q0877) by the Agricultural Research Service for laboratory services in Beltsville, MD. The contract will be awarded using Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation criteria, with a key technical evaluation requirement that vendors must completely fill out all mint green fields on the Exhibit A pricing sheet. The solicitation is for a firm-fixed-price contract under NAICS code 541380, seeking full and open competition for comprehensive dietary supplement laboratory testing services.
