The CDC Office of Acquisition Services intends to sole source the purchase of a Metrohm i-Raman NXG 785 S portable Raman instrument and a uStat-i M8ONE bipotentiostat/galvanostat/impedance analyzer. The i-Raman system replaces an obsolete spectrometer to maintain critical analytical capabilities for NMAM method publication, while the M8ONE instrument will support dermal penetration studies by allowing up to 16 simultaneous experiments, significantly increasing efficiency over previous single-channel units. The vendor is responsible for installation, operational verification, and providing both onsite and online training for the equipment. The i-Raman system will utilize an existing CDC laboratory desktop and SpecSuite software, while the M8ONE instrument will use existing DropView software and connect to the current ISLE system. This procurement is managed under solicitation number 98646 with a response deadline of September 10, 2026.

Full Description

Show more

This request is for the purchase of a Metrohm i-Raman NXG 785 S system which is a commercial off the shelf (COTS), portable Raman instrument. This acquisition replaces an obsolete, unrepairable Raman spectrometer (from B&W Tek, now owned by Metrohm) to prevent loss of critical analytical capability supporting NMAM method publication and implementation. Modern Raman technology improves sensitivity, reliability, and serviceability while maintaining portability for field-relevant applications.  
Additionally, this request is for the purchase of one μStat-i M8ONE (Bi)potentiostat/Galvanostat/Impedance Analyzer (EIS). This instrument will support CBMB researchers in ongoing dermal penetration studies using Franz cells by measuring impedance across skin membranes and generating high-quality graphs for publications and presentations. It will replace a single-channel unit and enable researchers to perform up to 16 simultaneous experiments instead of one at a time, significantly reducing experiment time and accelerating the delivery of results. Additional cables and training are provided as part of the package. 
The vendor will install the instrument, ensure correct operation, and train operators onsite for one day (i-Raman NXG) and 4 hours and online (μStat-i M8ONE EIS) as needed.
An existing CDC laboratory desktop connected to the ISLE (CDC Property # 357548) will be used to operate the i-Raman NXG 785 S instrument using the SpecSuite software. The NIOSH request for level III approval for the SpecSuite software has been submitted.
The μStat-i M8ONE EIS instrument runs on DropView software which the laboratory possesses currently, but may require an upgrade. It will not require any additional external computer system for operation. The instrument is designated for laboratory use only and will be connected to the current ISLE system.

Non-Research Long-Term Care facility needed for the enrichment and socialization of Non-Human Primate colony
Solicitation # 75D30126Q79062
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, through its Office of Acquisition Services, is seeking a qualified sanctuary to assume permanent ownership and long-term care of approximately 130 retired non-human primates, primarily rhesus and pigtailed macaques, no longer needed for federal research. The facility must be accredited by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries and operate as a true sanctuary with no research, breeding, buying, selling, trading, or sale of animal byproducts, and must prohibit direct public contact. The contractor must provide naturalistic, GFAS-compliant enclosures and implement structured social group formation, behavioral rehabilitation, and lifelong veterinary and husbandry care for each animal, ensuring their physical and psychological well-being in perpetuity. All animals must remain at the facility unless transferred for critical health reasons, and the contractor must sterilize any unsterilized animals within six months of intake. The procurement is a firm-fixed-price contract with mandatory pass/fail screening for GFAS accreditation, after which offers are evaluated holistically based on facility design, staffing, animal management plans, past performance, and price, with technical and performance factors significantly outweighing cost. The contract requires submission of detailed transport, intake, and care plans, coordination with USDA-licensed transporters at the CDC Royal Campus in Atlanta, Georgia, and a final report documenting full integration of the animals. Payment terms are structured as monthly invoicing for transportation, food, and intake activities, with a lump-sum payment upon completion of all animal transfers. The contractor must comply with strict records management obligations under federal law, including NARA and Privacy Act requirements, and ensure all employees receive CDC-provided records training. Proposals must be submitted electronically by July 23, 2026, and must include proof of SAM registration, affirmative certifications regarding payments and confidentiality, and be organized into three volumes covering accreditation, facility and operational plans, and staffing with pricing. The contracting officer is Jennifer Gartzke, and all payments will be made via electronic funds transfer upon proper enrollment through SAM or the ACH Vendor Enrollment Form, with invoicing directed to the CDC Office of Financial Resources in Atlanta.
