Timeline
    Description

    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) seeks sources capable of supplying an Industrial Physics PM710 Bench-Top Paramagnetic Oxygen Analyzer, a crucial piece of equipment for the agency's Earth Systems Research Laboratories (ESRL), Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML).

    This market research is aimed at finding U.S. businesses that can meet NOAA's specific requirements for this instrument, which plays a vital role in measuring oxygen levels in gas cylinders used in research. The agency seeks a bench-top analyzer with comparable performance to the outdated Beckman E2 paramagnetic oxygen analyzer currently in use.

    The PM710 model, with its precise oxygen measurement capabilities, is the focus of this effort. NOAA requires a swift delivery within 60 days of the award to ensure continuity in its research operations.

    Interested parties should provide a brief narrative and supporting documentation showcasing their ability to meet the agency's needs. This information will assist NOAA in deciding on the most suitable vendors. It's emphasized that this is a request for information only, with no commitment to a procurement action.

    NOAA will carefully evaluate responses based on the vendors' experience, knowledge, and capability to fulfill the specified requirements. The agency encourages eligible businesses, especially small and specialized firms, to respond.

    For more details, potential suppliers can contact Stephanie Mas at STEPHANIE.MAS@NOAA.GOV or on 3035786768. Responses are due by August 7, 2024.
