The NAICS code is 334514, Totalizing Fluid Meter and Counting Device Manufacturing; PSC is 6640, Laboratory Equipment and Supplies.

The probe must measure nitrate concentration up to 50 ppm, organic carbon, turbidity, temperature, and light transmittance across wavelengths of 200–720 nm, with capability for in-house calibration curve development. The equipment must demonstrate long-term stability, include wireless communication with mobile devices, and possess on-board memory capable of logging data for deployments up to six months. The item must be new (not refurbished or remanufactured) and accompanied by manufacturer documentation confirming the exact product specification.

Period of performance runs October 1, 2026 through January 15, 2027. Award will be made on a firm fixed price basis to the single contractor representing best value, evaluated first on price fairness and reasonableness, then on technical acceptability and past performance. Contractors must hold prices firm for 90 calendar days from offer receipt. The procurement is designated a rated order under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS). Technical questions must be submitted by the due date to Brad Carlson at the provided contact.
