About this opportunity

The USDA Agricultural Research Service is seeking maintenance and repair services for a Belimed 11-6-12 HS2 Steam sterilizer located at the Invasive Plant Research Laboratory in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The procurement requires a Belimed certified technical representative to replace a failed vacuum pump, conduct an annual inspection, and perform preventive maintenance on the sterilizer unit that services Biocontainment spaces designated as BSL 2 and BSL 3. Vendors must submit quotes on company letterhead that include detailed pricing for each line item and remain valid for at least 60 days after receipt. The evaluation will be based on overall Best Value to the Government, with technical capabilities and past performance weighted more heavily than price. The solicitation is posted under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with quotes due by August 28, 2025, just six days after the posting date of August 22, 2025.

This opportunity is set aside for Total Small Business participation, restricting competition to qualified small business concerns. The contract will provide one year of repair and maintenance services, with work performed at 3225 College Avenue in Fort Lauderdale during standard business hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on workdays, excluding weekends and federal holidays. The contractor must ensure the sterilizer is fully operational by completing a full cycle with a typical debris load, and all additional parts beyond the required vacuum pump must receive approval from the USDA Contracting Officer. Due to the sensitive nature of the biocontainment facility, contractor personnel must be accompanied by IPRL staff when accessing certain areas of the laboratory. The government anticipates awarding a Firm Fixed Price contract, though no specific budget range or estimated value has been disclosed in the solicitation materials.
