Bio-Logic Usa, LLC

Bio-Logic Usa, LLC, doing business as Bio Logic, is a Knoxville, Tennessee–based manufacturer and supplier of advanced electrochemical instrumentation and scientific laboratory equipment operating as a prime contractor (99% of awards) across federal civilian research and development agencies. The vendor competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements, with scattered small-business set-aside designations on individual purchase orders rather than as a characteristic posture; recent awards split between total small business set-asides and unrestricted competitions with no set-aside applied.

Bio-Logic specializes in potentiostats, electrochemical scanning probe systems, stopped-flow mixers, scanning electrochemical microscope components, rapid freeze-quench EPR systems, and related electrochemical workstations — instruments that support electrodeposition research, corrosion testing, kinetic measurement, and bionanomaterial analysis across federal laboratories. Representative prime awards include a $419,292 Department of Energy Office of Fossil Energy purchase order (September 2024, total small business set-aside) for potentiostats, boosters, and accessories supporting CO2 reduction electrolyzer testing under the Inflation Reduction Act; a $114,133 Army Research and Engineering Command order (August 2024, no set-aside) for electrochemical scanning probe and bio-instrumentation equipment deployed at Aberdeen Proving Ground; and a $81,507 National Institute of Child Health and Human Development purchase order (September 2025, no set-aside, severable acquisition) for a stopped-flow meter and fast UV/Vis spectrometer for child health research.

Customer concentration clusters around federal research infrastructure. The top five agencies by award count account for 60% of all awards and encompass the Office of Naval Research (18 awards, $784 thousand combined potential value), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (13 awards, $450 thousand), the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command (8 awards, $386 thousand), the Department of Energy Office of Fossil Energy (6 awards, $686 thousand), and the Army's West Point Military Academy (5 awards, $204 thousand). The potential-value rankings diverge slightly from volume — ONR and DOE dominate dollars, with DOE's six awards anchoring $686 thousand of the $3.5 million total portfolio — reflecting both higher unit prices on energy-research instrumentation and NIST's volume advantage through smaller individual equipment purchases. Bio-Logic has served 24 distinct customer agencies total, with additional work flowing to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, Veterans Integrated Service Network 10, Naval Sea Systems Command, and the Naval Education and Training Command.

Bio-Logic's award activity has accelerated in the past three years — two awards in 2022 to eight in 2024 — though 2025 and 2026 year-to-date volumes are modest (three and one award respectively). Two awards carrying combined potential value of $101 thousand face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore expose the vendor to recompete risk. The vendor operates primarily as a direct federal prime across purchase-order vehicles; it subcontracts minimally, with one documented sub-award to Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in September 2024 for DARPA research program support services equipment. Primary NAICS coding is Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing (77 of 84 awards), with PSC alignment to Laboratory Equipment and Supplies (57 awards) and Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments (6 awards).
