Automated Special Stainer System SupplyThe contract solicits the supply of an automated histochemical staining system designed for diagnostic use in clinical laboratories, with the capability to perform both routine and complex staining protocols including AFB, GMS, PAS, Trichrome, Reticulin, and Iron stains. The system must meet stringent operational and reliability standards to support accurate pathological analysis in a high-throughput environment. The procurement is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Veterans Affairs through the Network Contract Office 19, with performance expected to take place in Salt Lake City, Utah, at the designated zip code 84148. The solicitation was posted on July 24, 2026, with responses due by July 31, 2026, at 4:00 PM, indicating a limited window for vendors to submit proposals. The North American Industry Classification System code 334516 specifically categorizes this as medical and diagnostic laboratory equipment manufacturing, ensuring that only qualified manufacturers or authorized distributors may respond. While no set-aside provisions or small business preferences are indicated, the contract demands full compliance with clinical diagnostic standards and likely requires evidence of prior deployments in similar healthcare or Veterans Affairs facilities. The absence of a point of contact suggests that all inquiries must be directed through the official Sam.gov platform linked in the posting.

Delivery is required by July 31, 2026, at Fort Bliss, Texas, with the exact location in El Paso to be provided post-award. Evaluation will follow a Low Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, where only technically compliant offers—those including every listed item and valid reseller authorization—are considered, and award will go to the lowest-priced acceptable quotation. No socioeconomic set-asides apply, and offerors must provide a valid Unique Entity ID (UEI); GSA Contract Number must be included if quoting under a GSA schedule. The estimated contract value is $55,000, and while the contract type is not formally designated, it is inferred as Firm Fixed Price under FAR Part 12. Submission requires company letterhead, point of contact information, and adherence to the all-or-none requirement specified in the attached RFQ, with no formal evaluation factors beyond technical acceptability and price.

66--Histology Sorting and Filing SystemThe United States Geological Survey’s National Wildlife Health Center in Madison, Wisconsin, is seeking market information for an automated Histology Sorting and Filing System to modernize its archival management of approximately 170,000 glass pathology slides and 185,000 paraffin-embedded tissue blocks. Currently managed through labor-intensive manual processes with no reliable tracking of stored items, the system must automatically sort, index, and retrieve histology samples by metadata such as case number, accession number, stain type, and date, using 1D and 2D barcode technology with a minimum throughput of 200 slides and 500 blocks per hour. The solution must integrate with laboratory information systems, maintain unique identifiers throughout the workflow, log all handling events, and ensure traceability with at least 99.5% sorting accuracy and 99.8% barcode read accuracy, while operating reliably in a laboratory environment with exposure to xylene and formalin vapors. The system must be compact, chemically resistant, compliant with OSHA and UL safety standards, and feature robust software with role-based access, audit trails, and daily automated backups. The procurement will be guided by the Buy American Act, requiring products to be manufactured, produced, or mined in the United States in sufficient commercial quantities and satisfactory quality. Respondents must indicate whether their business qualifies as a small business or other socioeconomic category under the NAICS code 334516 with a 1,000-employee size standard, and confirm U.S. manufacturing origin.
