Assorted Mass Flow Controllers

Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA), operating under the U.S. Department of Energy, is soliciting quotations for assorted mass flow controllers under solicitation number RP481134, with a response deadline of August 20, 2026. The required items include specific models of EL-FLOW Prestige FG-201CS mass flow controllers in various gas configurations—helium, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide—as well as auxiliary components like RS485 accessory kits and cable T-part shut-off valves. Offerors must provide a detailed quotation including applicable lead times, itemized pricing with all available discounts applied to secure the best possible rate for BSA, and must comply with strict pricing requirements: all costs—including freight, tariffs, packaging, handling, and incidental charges—must be embedded within the unit price, as the resulting firm fixed price purchase order will not contain separate line items for additional fees. For items under 150 lbs, international shipping may be facilitated via BSA’s FedEx account, with weight disclosed; for heavier items or when all-inclusive pricing is unattainable, Brookhaven National Laboratory must be named as the Importer of Record under DAP Incoterms, using BSA’s designated freight forwarder. Quotations must include the ECCN and HTS code for each item, the country of origin, the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), and a published price list if available. Award will follow a lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) approach, prioritizing the lowest evaluated price from responsive and responsible offerors who meet all technical and administrative criteria. Pricing must remain valid for at least 60 days post-deadline, and submissions are to be made via an electronic portal; late proposals will be considered only if determined to be in BSA’s best interest. The contract enforces strict compliance with numerous Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, including restrictions on gratuities, contingent fees, and subcontractor sales to the government, as well as requirements for employment eligibility verification, whistleblower protections, and cyber security adherence under NIST SP 800-171. Additional obligations include compliance with export controls, prohibitions on equipment from certain foreign entities like Huawei and Kaspersky, adherence to the Framework for Nucleic Acid Synthesis Screening, and mandatory reporting of suspect or counterfeit items. All deliveries are to be made to Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, with acceptance occurring at the destination, and payment terms are
