HeliXcyto Biosensor Instrument

The Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health National Heart Lung and Blood Institute is seeking to procure a HeliXcyto Biosensor Instrument, classified under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and PSC code 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. This solicitation represents the acquisition of specialized analytical laboratory equipment that appears to be designed for biosensor applications, likely supporting research activities within the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's mission. The opportunity was posted on August 27, 2025, with a response deadline of September 2, 2025, providing potential contractors with a brief six-day window to prepare and submit their proposals. The solicitation notice does not specify detailed contract requirements, qualifications, or evaluation criteria beyond the basic equipment description. The extremely tight timeline suggests this may be an urgent procurement or a renewal of existing equipment needs.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations, making it open to competition among all qualified contractors regardless of business size or socioeconomic status. The solicitation notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or provide information about potential award values, budget ranges, or specific quantities of equipment to be purchased. No details are provided regarding the timeline for equipment delivery or installation services that may be required. The place of performance is not explicitly stated in the available information, though it would presumably be at National Heart Lung and Blood Institute facilities or other designated government locations. The limited information available suggests contractors will need to obtain additional details through the formal solicitation documents or by contacting the contracting office directly.
