About this opportunity

The FDA's Office of Acquisition and Grant Services issued a notice of intent for a sole-source award to Z-Spec, Inc., with a response deadline of August 13, 2026, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time. The procurement restricts competition under FAR 6.103-1 (Only One Responsible Source), citing Z-Spec's exclusive proprietary High Definition X-ray Fluorescence and Monochromatic X-ray Fluorescence technologies and the absence of commercially available alternatives meeting the agency's ultra-low detection limits for heavy metals.

The FDA seeks one Z-Spec Z-max Analyzer and one E-max PLUS Analyzer (solicitation 75F40126Q00337) to detect and quantify arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead, and thallium in food, dietary supplements, cosmetics, spices, soil, and water. The firm-fixed-price purchase order covers a 12-month performance period from September 30, 2026 through September 29, 2027. Delivery is required within 45 days of award to 5001 Campus Drive, College Park, Maryland, and includes vendor-provided installation, calibration, one-day onsite training, and a 12-month extended warranty with one preventive maintenance visit.

Interested parties may submit capability statements or quotes to Contracting Officer Min Jie Zeng (Minjie.Zeng@fda.hhs.gov). Responses must include company information, technical specifications, pricing, delivery schedule, and past performance evidence. PSC 6640; NAICS 334516.
