High Purity Germanium Gamma-Ray Spectrometer

The Food and Drug Administration is soliciting a High Purity Germanium (HPGe) Gamma-Ray Spectrometer system for sample analysis through a combined synopsis-solicitation issued as a Request for Quote under solicitation number FDA-75F40126Q00304. The system must consist of seven specific components including a STD P-Type Coaxial Detector, cryostat dipstick assembly, chamber, aluminum endcap, intelligent preamp, coax detector cold preamp assembly, and a 10-foot cable set, all meeting precise technical specifications such as a relative efficiency of 50–60%, energy resolution no greater than 1.25 keV at 122 keV and 2.2 keV at 1.3 MeV, peak-to-Compton ratio of at least 72:1, and an energy range covering 40 keV to 10 MeV. The instrument must be fully compatible with genie 2000/APEX software, Lynx Multi-Channel Analyzers, and vertical dipstick cryostat detector shields. The contract is a single Firm Fixed Price award with delivery required within six to eight weeks of award, and the system must be shipped FOB Destination with in-side delivery, including all shipping and handling costs in the quoted price. The evaluation will be conducted on a lowest-priced technically acceptable basis, with technical acceptability serving as a pass/fail gate before price comparison. To be considered, offerors must be actively registered in the System for Award Management with a valid Unique Entity Identifier and must submit proposals exclusively by email to Tiffany Gates at [email hidden] no later than 1:00 PM EST on August 7, 2026. Proposals must include detailed technical documentation, literature, and brochures demonstrating compliance with all requirements, and any “equal” products must be clearly identified with a narrative explaining how they meet each salient technical characteristic. All submitted documents must be in Microsoft Office formats without macros or executable files, and proprietary information must be clearly marked. The contract requires compliance with Section 508 accessibility standards, necessitating an Accessibility Conformance Report based on the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template, and adherence to the Buy American Act through disclosure of the product’s country of manufacture. A one-year manufacturer’s warranty beginning at government acceptance is mandatory, including unlimited phone and email support, a 72-hour on-site response time for repairs,
