About this opportunity

The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service is procuring IRGASON Gas Analyzer systems through solicitation number 1232SA25Q0790, specifically seeking two integrated gas analyzer and sonic anemometer systems for research on crop production management and sustainability in the Central Mississippi River Basin. The procurement focuses on Campbell Scientific equipment including IRGASON-NM-BB-NC integrated CO2/H2O open-path gas analyzers, CR6 dataloggers, and associated mounting equipment capable of measuring nitrous oxide fluxes with H2O and CO2 concentration measurements maintaining less than 2% error. Offerors must submit quotes by September 15, 2025, including company letterhead pricing, verification of U.S. manufacturing, active SAM.gov registration, and completed FAR representations and certifications. The government will evaluate submissions using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach with two factors: Technical Capability assessed on a Pass/Fail basis and Price. The solicitation operates as a combined synopsis and request for quotation under FAR subpart 12.6, with quotes required to remain valid for at least 90 days after receipt.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business Set Aside under NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and the government intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order. The Statement of Work indicates this appears to be a sole-source acquisition from Campbell Scientific, given the specific technical requirements for their proprietary equipment systems. The procurement calls for two complete IRGASON systems to ensure consistent measurements across research sites studying contrasting agricultural management practices. Delivery must occur within 90 days of order placement, with sensors required by June 30, 2026, and the performance period extending from September 19, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The place of performance is the MWA Cropping Systems and Water Quality facility located at 1406 E. Rollins Street, Columbia, Missouri 65211.
