Gas Analyzer Biddings - Procurement Opportunities

Mississippi State University is planning a sole-source purchase of a ParvoMedics TrueOne **** metabolic measurement system for the Department of Kinesiology. The system is deemed essential for ongoing research and instructional programs. The department has evaluated other systems and determined that the ParvoMedics system is uniquely suited to their needs due to its proprietary features, lab integration, and consistency with existing equipment. The estimated cost is $32,**** objecting to this purchase must submit a written notice to Jennifer Mayfield, CPPO, Director of Procurement Contracts, with a detailed explanation of why the commodity is not a sole source and supporting documentation. If MSU determines the commodity can be provided by another source, the sole-source request will be withdrawn and submitted to a competitive bid process. Otherwise, the matter will be appealed to the public procurement review board.

The State of Rhode Island is seeking vendors with experience, licenses, certificates, and qualifications for radon measurements in state-occupied buildings.

This is a sources sought notice for planning purposes only, not a request for proposal or quotation. NIST is seeking information from vendors about their capabilities to provide specific equipment and materials for a facility. The notice details the required specifications for the equipment, including sealing materials, pressure ranges, temperature capabilities, gas ports, mass flow controllers, vapor capabilities, sample columns, vacuum pumps, mass spectrometers, IR-based water sensors, and other features. Interested parties must submit a written response describing their capabilities, previous experience, and whether the item is offered via GSA or GWAC contracts. Responses are limited to 12 pages in MS Word format. NIST anticipates issuing a request for quotation in the third quarter of FY2025 and awarding a contract in the fourth quarter of FY2025. The response deadline is specified in the notice.

This is a sources sought notice, not a request for quote, to determine the availability and capability of small and large businesses to meet the government's requirement for a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) multigas analyzer (MGA) to replace an existing gas detection monitoring system (GDMS). The notice includes detailed specifications for the analyzers, minimum computer specifications, and the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and Product Service Code (PSC) for the requirement. Respondents are requested to provide company information, system technical data, budgetary estimate, and information on existing contract vehicles (e. g. , GSA, NASA SEWP). No funds are available for response preparation.

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is seeking to procure three real-time, highly robust quadrupole aerosol analyzers to measure chemicals in fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) in the atmosphere. These instruments are needed to improve regional air quality modeling and provide independent verification of aerosol model predictions in areas not meeting national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for PM2. 5, particularly in non-attainment areas that are also AB 617 communities.
