The document is a Request for Information (RFI) from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 9 seeking vendor input on the purchase and installation of an Ion Chromatograph (IC) system. The RFI aims to gather market intelligence about commercially available analytical laboratory instruments for analyzing various water matrices, including drinking, ground, surface, and saline water, as well as domestic and industrial wastes and solids leached with reagent water.

The RFI contains detailed questions for potential vendors, covering business size, certification status, technical capabilities, subcontracting needs, lead times, and commercial service availability. Respondents are asked to provide information such as their business classification (e.g., small business, veteran-owned, HUBZone), ability to meet draft requirements, previous experience, subcontracting percentages, and lead times. Vendors are required to submit responses by December 8, 2025, and are encouraged to include a capability statement. The solicitation (68HE0926Q0003) is open to all qualified vendors in the Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing sector (NAICS 334516) with no specific set-aside designations.
