About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and Development has issued a notice of intent to sole source the repair and maintenance of two Qiagen QIAcuity Digital PCR Instruments. This procurement falls under NAICS code 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance and PSC category J066 for Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment - Instruments and Laboratory Equipment. The agency intends to award this contract without competition to a single vendor, likely due to the specialized nature of the equipment requiring manufacturer-specific expertise or proprietary repair capabilities. The notice was posted on October 8, 2025, with responses due by October 18, 2025, providing interested parties a ten-day window to submit any objections or alternative sourcing recommendations. No specific evaluation criteria are detailed in this pre-solicitation notice, as the agency's intent is to proceed with sole source procurement rather than a competitive selection process.
This procurement does not utilize any small business set-aside designations, making it available to vendors of all sizes who can demonstrate the required technical capabilities. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers for these specific instruments. No award values, budget ranges, or cost estimates are disclosed in this pre-solicitation announcement. The scope is limited to exactly two Qiagen QIAcuity Digital PCR Instruments, indicating a relatively focused maintenance requirement rather than a large-scale service contract. The timeline for service delivery and contract performance period are not specified in this initial notice, though such details would typically be provided in the subsequent solicitation if the agency proceeds with the sole source approach.
