A14__Attachment_1_Price_Schedule.xlsx

This is a pricing template spreadsheet for a 5-year IDIQ contract (2025-2029) for benthic macroinvertebrates sample analysis services. The price schedule requires contractors to provide per-sample pricing for two main tasks: (1) taxonomic identification and enumeration of freshwater benthic macroinvertebrates, and (2) sample return to client.

The template corresponds to a small business set-aside solicitation (#140G0225Q0004) from the USGS Office of Acquisitions and Grants, with an estimated value under $250,000. The contract uses NAICS code 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services) with a $19M size standard. The evaluation criteria weights non-price factors more heavily than price. Responses must be submitted electronically to Travis Herberholz at therberholz@usgs.gov.
