About this opportunity

The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), part of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, intends to procure a cardiac slice system through a non-competitive sole source purchase order. This pre-solicitation notice indicates the agency's intent to negotiate directly with IonOptix, a small business, to provide the specialized analytical laboratory equipment. The procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 for Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing and PSC code 6640 for Laboratory Equipment and Supplies. The opportunity is structured as a notice of intent to award without full and open competition, meaning no competitive bidding process will occur. The notice was posted on July 10, 2025, with a due date of July 17, 2025, providing a seven-day window for any required responses or documentation.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations, despite the intended contractor being identified as a small business. IonOptix has been specifically identified as the sole source provider for this cardiac slice system, indicating they may be the only supplier capable of meeting the agency's specialized requirements or possess proprietary technology necessary for the research application. The notice does not specify contract award values, budget ranges, or quantities of equipment to be procured. No timeline for delivery or performance period is outlined in this pre-solicitation phase. The brief nature of this notice suggests that detailed specifications, pricing, and delivery requirements will be negotiated directly between NICHD and IonOptix following this preliminary announcement.
