About this opportunity
This solicitation has been cancelled by the USDA Agricultural Research Service, which was seeking laboratory sterilizer maintenance services for their Center for Grain and Animal Health Research facility. The procurement involved comprehensive maintenance and calibration services for two Getinge sterilizers located in Manhattan, Kansas, including a Getinge 5596-1R-L-USA model and a T Edge 10 model housed in Room 104. Contractors were required to have expertise in calibrating temperature and pressure sensors on Getinge equipment, provide manufacturer-authorized repair technicians, maintain a 4-hour telephone response time and 48-hour onsite response capability, and submit detailed calibration reports with supporting documentation. The evaluation method was designated as Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA), and quotes were originally due on September 15, 2025. The contractor would have been required to work under USDA escort while on location and coordinate with research staff since the facility remains occupied during service periods.
This opportunity was designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 811210 (Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance) with a size standard of $34 million in annual receipts. The contract structure included a base year running from September 26, 2025, to September 25, 2026, followed by four option years extending through September 2030. Performance requirements specified preventative maintenance to be conducted once during the base period and once during each option period, with repair services available as needed throughout the contract term. The place of performance was established at the USDA facility located at 1515 College Avenue, Manhattan, Kansas 66502, with FOB destination terms indicating that shipping costs would be included in the contractor's firm fixed price offer. Invoicing would have been processed in arrears through the Department of Treasury's Invoice Processing Platform.
