About this opportunity
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), specifically the Office of Acquisitions and Grants, has issued a Special Notice for a non-competitive purchase order to Malvern-PANalytical Incorporated. The notice pertains to the procurement of a certified generator for the Geology, Energy, and Minerals Science Center x-ray diffraction laboratory. The generator is needed to replace a broken component in a PANalytical X'Pert Pro x-ray diffractometer (serial number DY 2598), with the primary goal of restoring the instrument's functionality. This special notice is being published under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.207, which allows for informational purposes and indicates the government's intent to award the contract noncompetitively.
Contractors interested in this opportunity must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) and must submit their responses via email to Susan Ruggles (sruggles@usgs.gov) by June 12, 2025. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, with a size standard of 1,000 employees. While the notice states that all responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation, this is not a competitive solicitation. Contractors should provide information demonstrating their capability to supply the required items, with all submitted materials to be furnished at no cost or obligation to the government. The primary objective is to quickly replace the generator and restore the x-ray diffractometer to operational status for the USGS scientific research activities.
