About this opportunity
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is seeking to procure one new Multicollector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS) for the Mercury Research Laboratory at the Upper Midwest Water Science Center in Madison, Wisconsin. This comprehensive acquisition includes all associated components, hardware, software, warranty, shipping, delivery, installation, calibration, testing, and training services. The instrument must meet extensive technical specifications including at least four mass flow controllers, argon plasma ion source, double focusing ion optics, a Faraday cup array covering isotope systems from lithium to plutonium, and at least 11 Faraday cups. The solicitation utilizes Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, with award going to the lowest-priced vendor meeting all minimum specifications. The quotation submission deadline is September 9, 2025, at 2:30 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time, and the procurement has been amended twice to address vendor questions and clarify technical specifications.
This is not a small business set-aside procurement, operating under NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the solicitation documents. The procurement requires delivery within 180 days of contract receipt, followed by installation, calibration, and testing completion within 90 days of delivery, and on-site training within 30 days of installation completion. Large businesses must submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan, with the Department of the Interior's FY2025 subcontracting goals including 50.61% small business participation. All vendors must be registered and active in the System for Award Management (SAM) to submit quotations, and the instrument must be a new production model rather than used, demonstration, or previously installed equipment.
