Assisting Specialty Crop Exports: Low Oxygen Storage and Packaging Systems for U.S. Tree Nuts with Phytosanitary Traceability

Solicitation # USDA-FAS-10621-0750-106-27-0001

The Foreign Agricultural Service of the USDA is seeking a cooperative agreement under solicitation USDA-FAS-10621-0750-106-27-0001 to develop technically and economically viable technologies for low-oxygen storage and packaging of U.S. tree nuts. The project aims to replace expensive and bottleneck-prone fumigation or freezing processes with non-invasive, digital monitoring systems that maintain oxygen levels below 1% by volume. This initiative is critical for meeting the phytosanitary import requirements of countries such as India, Korea, and Japan, while ensuring product quality by suppressing lipid oxidation and eliminating chemical residuals. The total anticipated federal funding for a single award is 2,000,000 dollars over a performance period of up to five years. The scope of work includes creating digital oxygen mapping and seal integrity verification methods for various packaging formats, from bulk bins to retail bags, ensuring compliance with the European Union Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation for recyclability. Applicants must submit a project narrative limited to 10 pages, along with SF-424 and SF-424A forms, via the ezFedGrants portal by October 26, 2026. Awards will be determined through a trade-off process based on a scoring system totaling 80 points, prioritizing the project implementation plan, external industry collaboration, budget reasonableness, and document professionalism. Recipients will be required to establish a technical coordination group and adhere to strict reporting and conflict of interest disclosure guidelines.

AI Contract Overview

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans is procuring research services under an Advanced Contract Award Notice for a three-year project focused on understanding the virulence of Renibacterium salmonarum isolates and evaluating the impact of probiotics on disease outcomes in Atlantic salmon, both farmed and wild. The work, based at the Saint Andrews Biological Station in New Brunswick, requires the contractor to conduct molecular and genetic analyses, pathogen culture, live animal disease challenge trials, and quality-assured data generation in compliance with Aquatic Animal Pathogen Containment Level 2 standards. The contractor must demonstrate at least five years of hands-on experience in disease challenge support, handling infectious tissues, and maintaining quality assurance protocols for pathogen isolates and data, along with proven ability to apply analytical methods compatible with existing DFO datasets. Proximity is mandatory, as the contractor’s facilities must be within a two-hour drive to ensure sample integrity during transport. While the estimated contract value is $103,000 including HST, pricing is not competitively evaluated; the award is intended for a pre-identified supplier, RPC Science and Engineering, unless another qualified entity submits a statement of capabilities fully meeting all seven mandatory requirements. The contractor is responsible for delivering quarterly updates, annual analytical reports with interim data, and a final comprehensive report by March 1, 2029, with all intellectual property generated during the project vesting exclusively in the Government of Canada for public dissemination. DFO personnel will facilitate on-site sample collection and animal handling, and all work must be conducted in English under the government’s sole-source procurement exception due to the specialized and narrow scope of expertise required.

Full Description

1. ADVANCED CONTRACT AWARD NOTICE (ACAN) An ACAN is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier. 2.1 Portée The Project Authority is a Biologist at the Saint Andrews Biological Station and has been funded under DFO’s Competitive Science Research Fund to carry out research into understanding the impacts of disease and feed additives on the health and, microbiota of the host and pathogen virulence using recent local isolates of Renibacterium salmoniarum. This work is to be focused on the impacts to farm reared Atlantic Salmon and in parallel, the opportunistic study of wild salmon responses and natural state of the microbiome will be assessed for comparison. DFO is seeking a Contractor that must provide Quality Assurance/Quality Controlled analytical data and the ability to carry out work under aquatic animal pathogen containment level 2 guidelines. This applies to organic and inorganic chemistry, feeds analysis, fish pathogen, genetics and molecular biology analyses. All sampling will be conducted at the St. Andrews Biological Station, and it is a requirement that the Contractor be within short driving distance (two hours) for sample delivery (to prevent degradation of samples). 2.1.1 Objective: The primary objectives of this research are: 1) Improve the knowledge of recent isolates of Renibacterium salmonarum (Rsal) - characterization, virulence and host response. 2) Broaden the knowledge of natural wild fish microbial community structure and allow for ARB/ARG comparison to lab reared animals and gain understanding of community composition in response to probiotic addition and also disease. 3) Carry out disease challenges examining the potential of an available probiotic to influence survivourship outcomes against Renibacterium salmonarum. 4) Help to inform future mitigation options for disease management. The Contractor, in collaboration with the PA, will be responsible for objectives 1 through 4, developing a unique exposure model while investigating the virulence of selected Rsal isolates and running disease challenges with multiple treatment groups. (See ACAN document for complete definition of the requirements) 3. CRITERIA FOR ASSESSMENT OF THE STATEMENT OF CAPABILITIES (MINIMUM ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS) Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that it meets the following requirements: 1. The Supplier must have facilities, technical skills, experience, and equipment required to conduct a broad range of molecular and genetic analysis on pathogens and the ability to grow and isolate pathogens as well as experience with live aquatic animal disease challenge models. 2. The Supplier’s premises must be within a two-hour driving distance of the St. Andrews Biological Station to ensure sample integrity of samples. 3. The Supplier must be able to use analytical methods that are compatible with those applied to existing datasets, to support continuity and comparability of test results. 4. The Supplier must have demonstrated knowledge of the aquaculture sector in Canada to anticipate and interact with animal health staff in the efforts around pathogen determination and optimal strain selection. 5. The Supplier must have significant experience (at least 60 months) in disease challenge support, and handling on disease positive tissues. 6. The Supplier must have significant experience (at least 60 months) in relevant quality assurance and control of pathogen isolates, data and analysis of infected tissues. 7. The supplier must have significant experience (at least 60 months) in quality control of samples and provided isolates, data-sharing, digitization of data, and data summaries. See ACAN document for complete details.
