About this opportunity
The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), on behalf of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), is seeking to acquire an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer for clinical mass spectrometry research focused on measuring metabolic parameters and total energy expenditure. The required instrument must provide high-precision isotope ratio measurement capabilities with precision better than 0.1, dual-inlet and continuous flow configurations, advanced ion optics, automated sample handling, and compatibility with elemental analyzers and gas chromatographs. Key contract requirements include on-site installation, calibration, comprehensive training for laboratory personnel, and a minimum one-year full warranty. The procurement will be evaluated using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedures, where technical factors will outweigh cost considerations. Quotations are due by August 15, 2025, at 1:00 PM EST, and the solicitation is being processed as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under Simplified Acquisition Procedures for commercial products and services.
This procurement is not set aside for small businesses and is conducted through full and open competition under NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1000 employees. No incumbents or current contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. The contract will be awarded as a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) purchase order, though no specific budget range or award value is disclosed. The solicitation does not specify quantities since it involves the acquisition of a single specialized scientific instrument. The place of performance is within the United States, and vendors should note new security requirements for non-U.S. person visitors to NIH facilities, including mandatory pre-registration and escort requirements that took effect in March and April 2025.
