The Shared Instrumentation Grant (SIG) Program, managed by the National Institutes of Health, integrates three prior programs to support the acquisition or upgrade of advanced scientific instruments or integrated systems. Eligible applicants are groups of NIH-supported investigators seeking to enhance research capabilities through shared-use instrumentation that promotes collaborative efforts, rigorous measurements, and broad accessibility. Awards range from a minimum of $300,000 up to $5 million, with no upper limit on instrument cost, although cost sharing is required for premium or specialized equipment. The program emphasizes optimal sharing of the purchased instruments to maximize efficiency and cost-effectiveness in research operations. Clinical trials are not permitted under this grant. Interested parties can contact Dr. Xiang-Ning Li for further information, and applications are to be submitted through Grants.gov. This initiative aims to foster innovative and reproducible research by providing access to cutting-edge technology across the scientific community.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) announces the restructured Shared Instrumentation Grant (SIG) Program that consolidates three existing shared-use instrumentation programs, i.e., the Shared Instrumentation Grant program, the High-End Instrumentation Grant program, and the Basic Instrumentation Grant program. The NOFO invites applications from groups of NIH-supported investigators to purchase or upgrade a single item of state-of-the-art commercially available instrument or an integrated instrumentation system. The instruments purchased through the SIG Program require to be optimally shared among the users to ensure efficient and cost-effective research operations, enable rigorous and reproducible measurements, and encourage collaborative research and benefit broad research communities at large. The minimum award is $300,000. There is no cap on total cost of the instrument; however, the maximum award is $5,000,000. Cost sharing is required for premium instruments or special use instruments.

Supply and Delivery of one (1) Handheld Photosynthesis Meter for Soil and Vegetation Investigations
Solicitation # tender_22273
The Government of Ontario, through the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks, is soliciting bids for the supply and delivery of one handheld photosynthesis meter under solicitation number tender_22273. This instrument will be utilized for soil and vegetation investigations to measure plant gas exchange, specifically quantifying carbon dioxide uptake and water vapour loss. These measurements of photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate are critical for assessing plant health and physiological stress resulting from environmental contaminants and other stressors. The scope of work includes the procurement of the instrument, its physical delivery, and required performance testing. The contract will be awarded to the highest scoring compliant bid based on a three-stage evaluation process. Stage one verifies mandatory requirements, stage two evaluates the technical response for a maximum of 90 points with a minimum threshold of 63 points required to proceed, and stage three evaluates the commercial response for up to 40 points based on the lowest bid price. Eligible bidders must be Canadian businesses and provide a Tax Compliance Verification number. Additional requirements include adherence to Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act regulations, proof of WSIB coverage, and the ability to obtain insurance as specified in the agreement. Bids must be submitted via the Ontario Tenders Portal by November 6, 2026.
