What this contract is for

This is for the procurement of a Confocal Super Resolution Microscope (SRM) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The SRM instrument should provide true confocal point scanning with a tunable white light laser excitation source of visible range capable of simultaneous multi-line operation with independent intensity control and rapid microsecond-scale switching between excitation regime, broadband spectral detection in the range approximately 400–850 nm, with multiple independently configurable detection channels, FLIM/FCS functionality, and analytical tools enabling functional parameter mapping and FRET. Super-resolution performance should include both 2D and 3D STED nanoscopy across the visible spectrum, with possibility to acquire super-resolution imaging at ~30 nm lateral resolution. The instrument should operate within a unified software environment supporting automated calibration, lifetime fitting, super-resolution reconstruction, and compatibility with external analysis platforms.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
