This solicitation is seeking proposals for the purchase of two custom research hot-cells and an electrical cabinet. The National Institute of Mental Health requires the hot-cells to expand radiochemistry development and synthesis of new positron emission tomography radioligands. Responses are due by May 25, 2020.

The solicitation specifies technical requirements for the hot-cells, including dimensions, entry doors, windows, shelving, lighting, ventilation, and electrical systems. One vendor will be selected to construct the hot-cells within six months and deliver them in disassembled form to the National Institutes of Health campus in Bethesda, Maryland in fall 2020, contingent on space renovations. The vendor must also ship the required electrical cabinet prior to hot-cell delivery for installation. Installation, training, and storage costs if delays exceed four months must be included in pricing. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical merit, price, and past performance.
