High Flow Filters for NICHD Aquatics Facility

The NIH intends to restrict competition by using brand-name descriptions, in accordance with RFO FAR 12.102(a), and plans to solicit directly in accordance with RFO FAR 12.201-1(c)(2) for its requirement: 36-week supply of Graver brand-name High Flow Cartridge filters, Part # HF20-40S. Items are a critical component used by the animal research facility to ensure debris and embryos do not slip through filtration systems and end up in fish tanks.

Failure to maintain proper filtration may result in risks to animal health, invalidation of research data, and a waste of institute resources. This Presolicitation notice is NOT a Request for Quotation (RFQ)/Solicitation, however all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, quotation, bid, or proposal, as appropriate, which will be considered by the agency. Responses shall be submitted electronically to Jacob Balenson via email to Jacob.balenson@nih.gov no later than 1700 (Eastern Time), 2/5/2026. Emails must reference Presolicitation Number 75N94026Q00034 in the subject line.
