The Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology is seeking a brand-name only procurement for a PerkinElmer Model NexION 350D Bench-top Inductively Coupled Plasma Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) System. This specific model is required due to space limitations and the need for specialized capabilities, including a dual-channel multipole collision/reaction device with Kinetic Energy Discrimination. The system must support high-speed elemental and isotopic measurements, mitigate spectral interference across various sample types, and feature single particle ICP-MS mode for nanoparticle size distribution analysis to support science-based risk assessments of nanomaterials. This acquisition is 100% set-aside for small business distributors under NAICS code 334516. Due to an SBA class waiver of the nonmanufacturer rule, qualified small businesses may supply the product regardless of the manufacturer, as no small business manufacturers currently produce this equipment for the federal government. The successful contractor must be a small business meeting the size standard of 500 employees and provide a system capable of rapid continuous data acquisition and interfacing with commercially available selective separation systems.

PLEASE REFER TO THE ATTACHED SOLICITATION FOR a Bench-top Inductively Coupled Plasma Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) System- BRAND NAME ONLY PerkinElmer Model NexION 350D. The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334516 with a small business size standard of 500 employees. THIS ACQUISITION IS 100% SET-ASIDE FOR SMALL BUSINESS DISTRIBUTORS (UNDER SBA CLASS WAIVER). The contractor shall be a small business under the applicable size standard (SEE ABOVE) and shall provide either its own product or that of another manufacturing or processing concern. See FAR 19.102(f)(4) for additional information. CLASS WAIVER - CLASS WAIVER - SBA has granted a class waiver (effective effective 12/31/2013) of the nonmanufacturer rule for: "Not-portable, Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LS-MS) Systems, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Systems, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Systems, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) Systems under Product Service Code (PSC) 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies), under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing)." The basis for the waiver is that no small business manufacturers are manufacturing these classes of products to the Federal government. The effect of this waiver is to allow otherwise qualified small businesses to supply the products of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-owned (SDVO) small businesses or Participants in SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program. LINE ITEM 0001 is a BRAND-NAME ONLY requirement. The instrument offered must be manufactured by PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc. Brand-Name Only Justification: PerkinElmer is the only commercial manufacturer of a bench-top quadrupole ICP-MS instrument meeting all the necessary performance criteria required by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The instrument system must have a multipole collision/reaction device (dual-channel) with Kinetic Energy Discrimination and be capable of measuring elemental and isotopic content with high speed, sensitivity and accuracy, capable of mitigating spectral interference in a wide variety of sample types, including samples of environmental, clinical, geological, and biological origin, be capable of interfacing with a wide range of selective separation and autosampler systems, and be capable of measuring nanoparticle size distribution in single particle ICP-MS (spICP-MS) mode. A system capable of rapid continuous data acquisition, data acquisition (dwell) times below 100 - s, rapid quadrupole scan speeds (>90,000 u/sec), and equipped with software tailored to spICP-MS analysis, including the capability to calculate transport efficiency, provide the number of particle events, provide the particle size, provide the particle size distribution, provide the particle number concentration, and provide the concentration of the ionic element fraction, is essential. Procuring a bench-top ICP-MS with these capabilities are critical to NIST's efforts to develop tools to enable a science based risk assessment of the impact of nanomaterials on the environment and human health and safety. In addition, the ICP-MS system must be capable of being interfaced with commercially available selective separation systems. Due to space limitations, a bench-top model ICP-MS is required.

Building 215 Clean Room HEPA Filter Replacement
Solicitation # RFI-195000-26-00181
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is conducting market research through a Request for Information for the Building 215 Advanced Measurement Laboratory cleanroom repair and HEPA filter replacement project in Gaithersburg, Maryland. This initiative follows a previous solicitation that failed to produce an acceptable offer, prompting NIST to reassess its acquisition strategy and seek industry feedback on constructability, cost, and schedule feasibility. The project scope involves the modernization of an 1,800 square meter facility, including the replacement of approximately 1,200 HEPA filters, 70 VAV terminal units, and 54 airflow monitoring devices, as well as the installation of 32 exhaust air control valves and associated ductwork repairs, testing, and recertification. A critical component of the project is the proposed phasing plan, which aims to minimize research disruptions by utilizing 19 construction phases, including 18 critical cleanroom outage phases. Each critical outage is currently envisioned as a nine-day window starting Friday evening and requiring 24/7 operations to achieve ready-for-re-occupancy by the following Monday morning. NIST is specifically requesting rough-order-of-magnitude cost estimates and industry input on whether this aggressive outage schedule is realistic or if it creates prohibitive risks and costs. Responses, including company experience and recommendations for improving competition and project execution, are due by October 14, 2026.
