About this forecast

The Food and Drug Administration is forecasting a new requirement for a mass spectrometer (MS) system to be coupled with an existing ion chromatography platform, designed to enhance detection capabilities for food additive method development and analysis. The MS detector will improve sensitivity and selectivity for the determination of regulated additives such as potassium bromate and iodate in complex food matrices. The solicitation is estimated to be released on January 1, 2026, with an anticipated award date of April 1, 2026.

The estimated contract award value ranges from $25,000 to $250,000, with the requirement falling under NAICS code 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services). Interested contractors should direct inquiries to the FDA's Acquisition Liaison at hfpacquisitions@fda.hhs.gov, and the point of performance will be with the Food and Drug Administration. This is classified as a new requirement with no set-aside provisions applied.

Forecast text

This mass spectrometer will be coupled to an existing ion chromatography system to provide enhanced detection capabilities for food additive method development and analysis, including potassium bromate and iodate determination. The MS detector will significantly improve sensitivity and selectivity compared to conventional IC detection methods, enabling accurate quantification of these regulated additives in complex food matrices.
