Color Chart Design and Printing for Urine Test Strips

The contract calls for the high-precision design and printing of calibrated color charts specifically intended for visual interpretation of urine test strip results, requiring exact color matching to ensure accurate clinical readings. The work must adhere to stringent colorimetric standards to maintain consistency across batches and environments, as these charts serve as critical references in diagnostic settings where human vision determines outcomes. The production involves advanced printing technologies capable of reproducing subtle color gradients with minimal tolerance for variation, and all materials must be durable, chemically resistant, and suitable for use in clinical or field conditions. This is a subcontract under the Department of Defense’s Medical Supply Chain, with performance required at FPO, 96671. The solicitation was posted on August 2, 2026, and all responses are due by August 10, 2026. The North American Industry Classification System code 323117 indicates the work falls under commercial printing services, emphasizing the need for specialized expertise in precision color reproduction rather than general printing. While no set-aside provisions or point of contact are specified, the urgency of the deadline and the technical nature of the deliverables suggest the award will prioritize proven capability in medical diagnostic materials and strict compliance with color calibration protocols.
