About the company
Maxwell Biosystems AG, a for-profit Swiss manufacturer based in Zurich, sells high-density microelectrode array (MEA) systems, consumable sensor plates, and electrophysiology software to federal research agencies as a prime contractor in full-and-open competition — the vendor has not used small business set-asides across its federal award footprint, though one recent NIST award was issued under a Women-Owned Small Business set-aside designation.
Maxwell Biosystems competes in analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing (NAICS 339111) and laboratory equipment supply (PSC Group 6520). The vendor's concrete capability portfolio centers on MaxTwo and MaxLab platforms for neuroscience, stem cell, and electrophysiology research — high-density CMOS microelectrode array systems that record from up to 1,000 simultaneous channels per well with sub-10-microvolt noise floors, paired with stimulation and data-acquisition software. Representative recent awards include a $145,505 purchase order from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (September 2026) for a complete CMOS microelectrode array system with 80 sensor inserts, data recording computer, installation, and training; a $35,020 delivery from EPA's Office of Research and Development (July 2024) for MaxTwo multi-well MEA platform consumables; and a $19,600 subscription renewal with EPA ORD (January 2025) for MaxTwo Plate consumables. The vendor has established customer concentration around federal research agencies: EPA's Office of Research and Development anchors 4 awards ($287 thousand combined potential value), while NIH's National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences and National Institute on Drug Abuse jointly account for 4 awards ($536 thousand combined potential value). NIST contributes the remaining award value.
The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards); no subcontract engagement appears in the footprint. Activity is sparse and episodic — nine total awards over approximately eight years, with an average of one award per year and combined obligated value of $967 thousand. One award ($146 thousand, the NIST system purchase) reaches completion within the next twenty-four months, representing the only near-term recompete exposure in the pipeline.
