Post-Accident Toxicological Testing
Solicitation # 693JJ626Q000028
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) is seeking a small-business set-aside firm-fixed-price purchase order to provide post-accident toxicological testing of human samples, tox box program management, and related scientific services for the Office of Railroad Safety, Drug and Alcohol Division. The contract, with an estimated value of $2,600,000, covers a one-year base period with four subsequent one-year option periods, spanning from September 15, 2026, to September 14, 2031. The primary objective is to ensure scientifically sound and legally defensible analyses of urine, whole blood, and tissue samples from railroad employees in compliance with 49 CFR Part 219. Key responsibilities include the analysis of up to 200 sample sets annually, managing approximately 5,000 toxicology boxes across 2,500 employer sites, providing 24/7 emergency response and expert litigation support, and maintaining a strict data reporting schedule via the PATTS 2.0 system. To be eligible, contractors must maintain certification from the DHHS/SAMHSA National Laboratory Certification Program, accreditation from the American Board of Forensic Toxicology, or accreditation from the College of American Pathologists. The FRA will employ a third-party technical oversight contractor to conduct triannual inspections and open proficiency testing to verify the forensic integrity of the results. Award selection will be based on a best-value tradeoff process, prioritizing prior experience and technical management approach over price. The contractor is also required to submit an IT Security Plan within 30 days of award and ensure all personnel meet specific scientific credentials and DOT background investigation requirements.

671nm Laser cooling of lithium atoms
Solicitation # 1333ND26QNB680551
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting quotations for the procurement of one 671nm laser system designed for the laser cooling of lithium atoms. This equipment will support the upgrade of a neutral atom-based quantum simulator, specifically for use in transverse cooling, Zeeman slowing, and magneto-optical trapping. The system must be based on established commercial off-the-shelf platforms, be entirely new, and feature single frequency operation with a linewidth at or below 1 MHz. Technical requirements specify that the laser head must be suitable for US optical table mounting and the electronic controller must fit standard 19-inch instrument racks. The contract will be awarded to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror. Proposals must be submitted in three distinct volumes covering technical capabilities, firm-fixed-price quotations, and acceptance of terms and conditions. Delivery is required no later than 25 weeks after the award on a FOB Destination basis, with the government performing onsite inspection and acceptance within seven business days of receipt. The solicitation is managed by the Department of Commerce, with primary points of contact being Tracy Retterer and Nina Lin. Following Amendment 0001, the response deadline is September 8, 2026, at 3:00 PM.
