Pipette calibration, maintenance, and repair services in a Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) environment.

This solicitation, numbered 75D301-26-Q-78959, is a combined synopsis and request for quotation issued under FAR Part 12 simplified acquisition procedures for commercial services, specifically for pipette calibration, maintenance, and repair in a Good Laboratory Practice environment. The acquisition is set aside exclusively for small business concerns under NAICS code 811210, with a firm-fixed-price contract anticipated upon award. Work will be performed primarily onsite at the CDC’s Roybal campus in Atlanta, Georgia, with approximately 20% of activities conducted offsite at the contractor’s facility. The contract includes a base year from June 25, 2026, through June 24, 2027, and four one-year option periods extending through June 24, 2031, encompassing calibration services for pipettes across multiple volume ranges and on-site support. All quotations must be submitted electronically by May 28, 2026, to the designated Contract Specialist at cbp0@cdc.gov, and telephonic responses are expressly prohibited. Service providers must demonstrate technical capability aligned with ISO/IEC 17025, ANSI/NCSL Z540.3-2016, and ISO 8655 standards, including experience in regulated environments such as FDA or cGLP settings. Offerors are evaluated on technical capability, management and staffing qualifications, and past performance, with award based on a trade-off approach where non-price factors are more important than price, though price remains a decisive element among technically equal proposals. Deliverables include electronic calibration certificates and site visit summary reports submitted to CDC’s Subject Matter Expert and Contracting Officer’s Representative, with all equipment returned post-service and repairs completed within four weeks if performed offsite. Contractors must comply with stringent security and information handling protocols under CDC-IS-2006-01, Section 508 accessibility requirements for all electronic submissions, and prohibitions on the use or retention of non-public government data.
