About this forecast

The Food and Drug Administration seeks to procure an ion chromatography (IC) system capable of separating and quantifying chromium species, specifically Cr(III) and Cr(VI), in food matrices, dietary supplements, and bottled water. This system will support the development and validation of an HPLC-ICP-MS analytical method, with IC technology selected to provide superior resolution and specificity for chromium oxidation states compared to conventional liquid chromatography approaches. The solicitation is forecasted for release on May 1, 2026, with an estimated award date of August 1, 2026.

The estimated award value for this new requirement ranges between $25,000 and $250,000. This procurement falls under NAICS code 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and does not include any set-aside provisions. Interested vendors should direct inquiries to the Food and Drug Administration's Acquisition Liaison at hfpacquisitions@fda.hhs.gov for additional information regarding this forecasted opportunity.
