About this file
This is a detailed pricing sheet for laboratory testing services related to dietary supplements, covering an extensive range of analytical testing categories from 2025-2027. The comprehensive pricing document outlines testing specifications for vitamins, minerals, botanicals, physical testing, and proximates across multiple measurement units, with estimated testing quantities and per-ingredient/test pricing for each year. The pricing sheet includes granular details such as measurement precision (minimum 3 significant figures), specific testing components (e.g., Vitamin C, B vitamins, minerals like calcium and zinc, botanicals like green tea, and physical tests like disintegration and dissolution), and provides a structured template for contractors to list their testing methods, locations, and associated costs.
The related federal contract opportunity is a Sources Sought Notice from the USDA Agricultural Research Service seeking lab services for dietary supplement ingredient analysis. The opportunity is planned as a small business set-aside contract, contingent on receiving responses from at least two qualified small businesses across various socioeconomic categories (8(a), Small Disadvantaged Business, HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Women-Owned Small Business). The solicitation (Number 1232SA25Q0877) is currently in pre-solicitation phase, emphasizing that it is an informational notice only and does not constitute a formal request for quotes or proposals, with the government reserving the right to proceed or not based on received capabilities.
