About this forecast

The Food and Drug Administration is forecasting a new requirement for two GC-MS/MS systems to replace aging instrumentation that is over 10 years old and no longer meets required analytical performance standards. These instruments will enable critical analyses of phthalates, microplastics, brominated flame retardants, and PFAS in packaging materials, delivering the enhanced sensitivity and detection limits necessary for regulatory compliance and safety testing. The solicitation is estimated to be released on December 1, 2025, with an anticipated award date of June 1, 2026.

The contract award value is estimated between $250,000 and $700,000, with procurement classified under NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services). The requirement involves the supply of two replacement analytical instruments with no specific set-asides designated for small business or other protected categories. Interested vendors should direct inquiries to the FDA's Acquisition Liaison at hfpacquisitions@fda.hhs.gov for additional information regarding this forecasted opportunity.
