About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Hood is seeking to procure two Gas Chromatograph (GC) instruments for the Safety Air Monitoring and Analytical Referee System (SAMARS) at Dugway Proving Ground. The solicitation requires specific technical specifications, including flame photometric detectors with phosphorous and sulfur optical filters, chromatographic columns (DB-1701 and DB-210 phases), and an air sampling pre-concentrator trap with a minimum flow rate of 500 mL/min. Potential contractors must be registered in SAM.gov and submit quotes by March 10, 2025, at 11:00 AM MST. The procurement will use RDT&E funds for FY2025-2026, with a targeted completion date of May 30, 2025. The evaluation will focus on meeting the detailed technical requirements, with particular emphasis on the instrument's ability to detect and analyze chemical warfare agents.

The solicitation is not set aside for any specific business category and appears to be a sole-source procurement targeting Teledyne Instruments Incorporated. The contract is classified under NAICS category 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1000 employees. The procurement seeks two Teledyne Falcon Series Gas Chromatographs with specific configurations: one unit for sulfur detection and another for phosphorus detection, including spare column modules and detectors. The instruments will replace existing MINICAMS systems and must be delivered within 30 days after order receipt to the West Desert Test Center in Dugway, Utah. The estimated instrument dimensions are approximately 17" x 11" x 8.5" and weighing around 25 pounds, with a focus on portable, high-precision chemical analysis capabilities.

Notice text

***SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS***

Please provide a quote and indicate the maximum time frame for which this price will remain valid.

Procure two GC instruments with the following specifications:

    • Flame Photometric Detector (FPD); one instrument with phosphorous optical filter, one instrument with sulfur optical filter
    • Chromatographic columns: one instrument DB-1701 phase and one instrument DB-210 phase column;
    • Air sampling pre-concentrator trap capability with flow rate through the trap of at least 500 mL/min
    • External mass flow controller, ability to capture the flow meter readings
    • Oven programmable from ambient to 400℃
    • Cycle time from injection to injection of 15 minutes or less
    • Visible and audible alarms for system faults and sample concentration detections
    • Quick change trap assembly, flow rate of 500 mL/min with ability to change the preconcentrator tube in approximately 1 minute
    • Onboard integration engine with graphical use interface. Ability to operate the instrument, calibrate, troubleshoot, analyze samples, etc. from the user interface. Visual readouts displayed of set points and measurements such as: sample flow, temperatures, pressures, concentrations, injection types, valve status, voltage, etc.
    • Data logging. Ability to capture instrument set points and measured values such as: flow, temperatures, pressures, calibration, concentration, injection type – calibration, service, sample, etc. Data captured locally with the ability to retrieve and use for other reporting or calculating of sample data.
    • Automatic calibration feature. Calibration of the instrument using an averaged single point or multi-point calibration curve. Capable of calibrating and obtaining sample concentrations using the onboard integration engine, and values displayed on the graphical user interface.
    • Heated exhaust to prevent expulsion of water. Detector exhaust must expel water in gas/vapor form elimination water drip from the instrument detector.
    • Sample bypass capability. Ability for continuous sample flow at inlet in a bypass state. A minimum flow of 500 mL/min required for bypass capability.
    • GC approximate dimensions - 17” x 11” x 8.5” (width x height x depth)
    • Instrument weight approximately 25 pounds
