About this opportunity
The USDA Agricultural Research Service is conducting a market survey to identify potential suppliers for ELISA Kits designed to detect prior Influenza infection in swine through Nucleoprotein (NP) antibody testing. This pre-solicitation notice is specifically seeking to determine the availability of qualified small business contractors, including SBA-certified HUBZone, SBA-certified 8(a), Women-Owned, and Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) firms capable of providing these specialized medical testing kits. The procurement falls under NAICS code 339112 (Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees. Interested companies must submit capabilities statements demonstrating their expertise and experience in providing similar products, rather than formal proposals, and must clearly indicate their small business certification status. The response deadline is Friday, August 1, 2025, at 4:00 PM CDT, with all submissions and questions directed to Melissa Santos at melissa.santos@usda.gov.
This notice indicates no set-aside designation has been determined yet, as the government will use the market research results to decide whether to limit competition to specific small business categories or proceed with unrestricted full and open competition. No incumbent contractors or current suppliers are identified in the documentation, suggesting this may be a new requirement or the government is exploring alternative sources. The notice does not specify award values, budget ranges, or quantities of ELISA kits required, as this information would typically be included in the attached Statement of Need document. No service timeline is provided beyond the immediate response deadline for the market survey. The government has emphasized that this is purely a market research exercise with no commitment to award contracts based on the responses received, and respondents will not be notified of the survey results.
