About this opportunity

The U.S. Embassy San Salvador, Department of State, seeks quotations for five handheld density meters/detectors and in-country training in Spanish for 10 police officers, with questions due November 3, 2026 and quotations due November 13, 2026. The solicitation carries no set-aside. The notice's due-date field lists November 10, 2026, but the solicitation text sets November 13 and states that no quotations will be accepted after that time.

Place of performance is Antiguo Cuscatlán, El Salvador, and the RFQ summary specifies delivery to Doral, Florida. The government will award a single firm-fixed-price purchase order, aggregated across CLINs 0001 and 0002, to the responsible quoter submitting an acceptable offer at the lowest price. Award will be based on initial quotations without discussions, unless a competitive range requires them.

The meters must be brand name or equal to the Buster CSECO-K910G, with a Barium-133 source, 6-inch reading depth, 0.02-second scan rate, and multiple scanning modes. Training covers equipment operation, calibration, preventive maintenance, density measurement, and radiation-safety procedures. The offeror is responsible for export licensing and lawful importation of the radioactive source. No Chinese-manufactured components or counterfeit parts are permitted. Pricing must be firm-fixed and all-inclusive, covering delivery, pre-delivery inspection, ISPM 15-compliant packaging, marking, and a one-year manufacturer warranty. The government inspects on arrival, and nonconforming items are returned at contractor expense and risk.

Quotations go by email to grijalvaje@state.gov in two separate parts: a technical quotation and a pricing schedule. The technical quotation must include product identification, technical literature showing specification compliance, delivery, inspection and testing, warranty, export compliance, and packing/marking statements. Required forms include SF-1449 Section I, Pricing, Section 5 Representations and Certifications, and proof of current SAM.gov registration. Files must be in Word, Excel, or PDF format, each no larger than 30MB, and proposals must be in English. No award value or ceiling is stated.
