About this opportunity
The U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants is conducting market research on non-personal analytical laboratory services for low-level tritium analysis to support the National Water Quality Laboratory, with sources sought responses due by June 11, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. MST.
The requirement encompasses analysis of low-level tritium in aqueous samples collected from groundwater monitoring wells and surface-water sites, establishment of analytical requirements meeting USGS data-quality objectives, and provision of documentation, data, metadata, and technical support for data users. The contract will specify analytical services, analytes, methods, schedules, and performance metrics.
This is a sources sought notice for market research purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation, quotation request, proposal request, or invitation for bid. Responses are voluntary; all costs of participation are the submitter's responsibility. The Government will use responses to inform acquisition decisions. Interested sources must separately respond to any formal solicitation posted subsequently on SAM.gov; this market research response does not satisfy future solicitation requirements.
Responses must be submitted via email to ysornberger@usgs.gov no later than June 11, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. MST. The work falls under NAICS 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services) and PSC R499 (Support—Professional: Other). No set-aside is anticipated.
