About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC), a state agency and academic health science center, is soliciting sealed bids for an Invitation for Bid (IFB #7079) to procure a comprehensive epifluorescence microscope system. The complete system requires an upright motorized epifluorescence microscope with specific technical specifications, including motorized stage control across X, Y, and Z axes, seven plan apochromatic objectives ranging from 2x to 100x magnification, dual DIC condensers, four fluorescence filter sets (DAPI, GFP, DS-Red, and CY5), and LED illumination with fiber optic delivery. Additionally, the procurement includes two digital cameras (one color and one monochrome), two computer workstations with image analysis software, and all required optical components and accessories. Sealed bids must be submitted electronically through the Mississippi Management and Reporting System or physically delivered to the Office of Category Management and Procurement in Clinton, MS by January 9, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Central Time. Bidders may submit written questions to John Shows (jashows@umc.edu) or Kendra Carter (kcarter2@umc.edu) at least five business days before the closing date. The award will be determined through a two-step evaluation process: first validating responsiveness and mandatory specification adherence, then evaluating based on lowest and best cost.

All vendors selected for award must register with GHX VendorMate (at their own expense) and the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration. Bidders are required to demonstrate they are either manufacturers or authorized distributors/resellers, and must provide documentation of authorization if applicable. The bid documentation must include a completed proposal form with base bid price, current manufacturer's published price lists, brand names, model numbers, descriptions, contract purchase prices, and discount percentages. UMMC reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, award in whole or in part, and withdraw awards if deemed in the institution's best interest. The contract will have a one-year term and can be terminated by either party with or without cause. The final contract is subject to approval by the Mississippi Board of Trustees of State Institutions of Higher Learning and is contingent upon receiving a purchase order from UMMC. All winning bidder information, including award amount and company name, will be disclosed to responding bidders following the Notice of Award.
