AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is seeking a firm-fixed-price contract for the laboratory analysis of wastewater and drinking water samples to support the Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (UMESC). The scope of work includes testing for various water quality parameters, such as Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Total Suspended Solids, Phosphorous, Ammonium, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Total Organic Carbon, coliform bacteria, and various inorganic, synthetic organic, and volatile organic compounds. The contractor is responsible for providing all necessary equipment, labor, and materials, including the coordination of weekly sample shipping from the UMESC facility. A mandatory requirement is that the vendor must operate a laboratory certified by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources for at least ten consecutive years for the analysis of disinfection byproducts and primary and secondary inorganics. The period of performance begins on March 11, 2026, and runs through March 10, 2027, with four one-year option periods and a final six-month extension option, potentially extending the contract to September 10, 2031. This acquisition is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 541380 and follows FAR Part 12 and Part 13 regulations. Award decisions are based on a best-value trade-off rather than the lowest price, with evaluation factors prioritized by the laboratory's distance from the UMESC facility, past performance on similar contracts, and personnel qualifications. Invoicing must be processed electronically through the Department of the Treasury's Invoice Processing Platform.
