About this opportunity

The Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 is seeking information regarding the purchase and installation of a commercially available Ion Chromatograph (IC) system through a Request for Information (RFI) process. This analytical laboratory instrument will be used to analyze various matrices including drinking water, groundwater, surface water, saline water, domestic and industrial wastes, and solids leached with reagent water. The RFI is designed to gather vendor input and market information prior to formal solicitation, allowing the EPA to better understand available commercial solutions and technical capabilities in the analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing sector. Interested vendors are required to submit their responses to specific RFI questions by December 8, 2025, which represents the deadline for providing information to the government. The government has made available two supporting documents—a Statement of Work (SOW_2.pdf) and RFI questions (RFI_questions_2.docx)—both posted on December 1, 2025, which vendors should review carefully to understand the technical requirements and specific information being requested.

This RFI contains no set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all qualified vendors in the Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing sector (NAICS 334516). The pre-solicitation notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or provide specific budget information or award values at this stage. No incumbent contractor information or historical contract values are disclosed in this RFI, as the government is still in the information-gathering phase prior to formal procurement. The RFI process itself does not result in contract awards; rather, it serves as a market research tool to inform the government's approach to the subsequent formal solicitation. Vendors responding to this RFI should anticipate that their feedback will directly influence the scope, specifications, and acquisition strategy for the eventual full and open competition.
