Brookhaven Instruments Corp.

Brookhaven Instruments Corp., a for-profit manufacturer of analytical laboratory instrumentation based in Nashua, New Hampshire, sells centrifugal nanoparticle analyzers, dynamic light scattering devices, and molecular weight analyzers to federal research agencies as a prime contractor exclusively. The vendor operates across both set-aside and full-and-open competition, with recent awards spanning Total Small Business set-asides and unrestricted purchase orders.

Brookhaven's capability portfolio centers on benchtop analytical instruments for particle characterization and biomolecule quantification. Recent representative work includes a $52,475 centrifugal nanoparticle analyzer delivered to the U.S. Forest Service Forest Products Laboratory under Total Small Business set-aside (August 2026), a $72,972 Zetasizer Advance Series-Lab dynamic light scattering device and multipurpose titrator for a Northeast Area civilian agency (October 2025), a $55,525 benchtop dynamic light scattering device for the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command (September 2023), and a $52,600 molecular weight analyzer with multi-angle light scattering technology for the USDA Agricultural Research Service Midwest Area under Total Small Business set-aside (September 2023).

Customer concentration is broad across federal research operations. The top five customer agencies by award count account for 39% of all awards, led by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (6 awards each), followed by the USDA Agricultural Research Service Field Research Implementation and Information Delivery Midwest Area, the Navy's Office of Naval Research, and the Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (4 awards each). By potential value, the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration leads with $156 thousand across three awards, followed by the Army Corps of Engineers at $139 thousand and the Navy at $111 thousand. The vendor has served 24 distinct customer agencies over its award footprint.

Brookhaven competes on two IDVs: the Army's Indefinite Delivery Contract DAAG4684C0026 and a Blanket Purchase Agreement MD111491, each hosting one task order. The vendor's 61 prime awards span primarily the Laboratory Equipment and Supplies PSC category (36 awards), with additional work under Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments, Information Technology Software, and related classifications. Activity has been episodic — one award in 2026, one in 2025, two in 2023, and sparse volume in prior years — with combined potential value of $1.4 million across all awards. Combined dollars obligated are $2.2 million, exceeding the potential value figure, indicating completed performance under closed purchase orders. Brookhaven operates as a pure prime (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
