Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Kits

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) APHIS is issuing Solicitation 12639526Q0082 as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for an indefinite‑quantity contract to supply Foot‑and‑Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) Enzyme‑Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kits. All responsible sources may submit a quotation, but the solicitation is unrestricted (no small‑business set‑aside) and the Government intends to make a single award. Offerors must provide complete pricing for the base ordering period and for every line‑item quantity listed for all future ordering periods; failure to do so may result in exclusion. Quotes will be evaluated under FAR 12.203/12.204 using a comparative best‑value methodology (no formal trade‑off), and the Government may consider proposals that exceed the minimum requirements if they provide additional value. The contract will be administered under FAR 52.216‑22 (Indefinite Quantity) with individual delivery orders issued through the contract period. The contractor must meet the Virus‑Serum‑Toxin Act (21 U.S.C. 151‑159) and 9 CFR Parts 101‑123 requirements for purity, safety, potency, and efficacy, and the USDA must inspect and approve the manufacturing facility. Required capabilities include trained personnel, appropriate production equipment, and quality‑control instrumentation to consistently produce high‑quality FMD ELISA kits for the National Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. Offerors must also certify compliance with Title VI and Title IX civil‑rights obligations and the executive orders on gender ideology and merit‑based opportunity (EO 14168 and EO 14173). All applicable clauses are incorporated by reference; the full text is available at www.acquisition.gov.
