Chemical Detection Chip Manufacturing

The contract mandates the manufacture of chemical detection chips designed to detect ammonia concentrations within a precise range of 2.0 to 50.0 parts per million, with each unit incorporating ten reagent-filled capillaries calibrated during production to ensure accuracy and consistency. The chips must be engineered to maintain performance integrity over a two-year shelf life under standard storage conditions, requiring strict quality control throughout the fabrication process to guarantee reliability and longevity. Production must adhere to industry standards for analytical sensor fabrication, with calibration protocols documented and verified to meet the specified detection thresholds. The solicitation, issued under NAICS code 325411 for chemical and chemical products manufacturing, is structured as a subcontract within the Department of Defense’s Medical Supply Chain FSH framework. Performance is required at the APO location with ZIP code 09094-3219, indicating deployment to military or overseas operational sites where rapid, portable ammonia detection is critical for safety and environmental monitoring. The response deadline is set for July 30, 2026, with the solicitation posted on July 23, 2026, allowing a seven-day window for submissions through the DIBBS platform. All deliverables must be fully compliant with defense procurement technical and logistical requirements.
