About this opportunity

The Department of the Interior US Geological Survey Office of Acquisitions and Grants issued a sole source justification for the renewal of technical support services for Sample Master Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) client-database software. The contract, awarded to Accelerated Technology Laboratories, LLC (d/b/a Confience) on August 12, 2025, under contract number 140G0225P0115, provides one year of Pro Support for 20 concurrent users including various modules for data entry, quality assurance/quality control, electronic data transfer, chemical inventory, and resource management. The sole source justification is based on Confience being the exclusive proprietor and manufacturer of Sample Master LIMS software, which cannot be purchased through resellers, making them the only available source for the required technical support and maintenance services. The USGS originally purchased this software in 2006 with additional licensing added in 2018, and consolidated two individual LIMS systems at the EROS Data Center in 2024. The Contracting Officer conducted market research through a sources sought notice on SAM.gov from June 23-30, 2025, receiving confirmation from Accelerated Technology Laboratories of their exclusive manufacturing status. While the contract award amount was not disclosed, the services include unlimited technical support, remote support, web site user support, software service packs, product upgrades, and migration credit for the specialized LIMS system used by the USGS Central Energy Resources Science Center.
