About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking market research on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) analyzers and associated consumables for identifying microorganisms, viruses, and microbial toxins. This RFI is issued in accordance with FAR Parts 10.002 and 15.201 and represents planning efforts only, with no obligation for the government to acquire services or provide reimbursement for response costs. A critical requirement is that the consumable assays must support the option to utilize government-furnished capture and detection antibodies, with particular emphasis on multiplex assay capabilities for toxins including ricin, botulinum, and staphylococcal enterotoxin B. Responses must address detailed company information, technical capabilities, manufacturing readiness, production capacity, operator safety features, and compliance with MIL-STD-810 requirements. Interested vendors must submit responses electronically to Contracting Officer Jemel Hogan and Contract Specialist Sarah Eggerling by 5:00 PM EDT on January 16, 2026, with a maximum response length of five pages.

This RFI carries no set-aside designation and does not identify any incumbent contractors or current contract holders. No award value or budget range has been disclosed in this market research phase. The RFI does not specify quantities of goods required or an implementation timeline, as this is a preliminary information-gathering effort to assess industry capabilities prior to potential future procurement action. The submission deadline of January 16, 2026 provides vendors approximately four weeks from the December 18, 2025 posting date to prepare and submit their responses. The RFI falls under the Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing NAICS category (334516) and Laboratory Equipment and Supplies PSC category (6640).
