About this forecast
The Department of Agriculture is seeking to procure IT support services for the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) laboratory operations in Fort Collins, Colorado. The contract will provide on-site and virtual technical support for 24/7 operations and maintenance of IT equipment resources, working in conjunction with an IT Help Desk that operates during standard business hours. The requirement addresses a critical capability gap, as USDA currently lacks qualified on-site staff with the specialized skill set necessary to support unique scientific laboratory equipment designed for research and development needs. The estimated solicitation release date is August 30, 2026, with an estimated award date of June 30, 2026.
The estimated contract award value ranges from $500,000 to $999,000, classified under NAICS code 541519 (Other Computer Related Services). This is a full and open competition purchase order contract currently in the drafting solicitation phase. Performance will be conducted at the Fort Collins, CO location, with the contract aimed at preventing significant delays in technical issue resolution that could impact research operations. Inquiries regarding this opportunity should be directed to Andrew Williams at the United States Department of Agriculture via email at andrew.williams3@usda.gov or by phone at +1 631-264-4121.
