Summary

This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will be made in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6 Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and solicitation for commercial Items, as applicable, and as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested. The Solicitation number is RFQ-NIAID-26- 04446 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ). This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2024-05 dated May 22, 2024. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 334510, Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The requirement is being competed with a brand name restriction, and without a small business set-aside. A high-resolution ultrasound imaging system is required to enable precise, real-time visualization of mouse embryos during in utero injection procedures. This capability is essential for accurate targeting of embryonic structures, improving procedural consistency, and increasing overall success rates. The system will support a range of applications including developmental biology studies, gene delivery, and disease modeling that depend on reliable embryonic manipulation. Ultrasound guidance will reduce technical variability, minimize embryo loss, and allow confirmation of injection placement during procedures. The equipment is necessary to ensure efficient execution of ongoing and future research protocols that cannot be performed with sufficient accuracy using current methods.
