Description

The USDA‑ARS is seeking quotations for a single‑manufacturer, automated micro‑plate reader to replace an aging spectrophotometer used in forage‑quality research. The instrument must fit a 40 cm × 33 cm × 35 cm footprint, support absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence detection, read multiple plate formats (up to 384‑well), provide rapid read times, include integrated software compatible with Microsoft Excel, and come with on‑site installation, a one‑year warranty, and a ten‑year guaranteed service life. Delivery is required within 60 days to the USDA‑ARS facility in St. Paul, MN.

Budget estimate

$40,000 – $100,000

The SpectraMax Mini micro‑plate reader family typically retails between $30,000 and $70,000 depending on configuration and accessories. Adding on‑site installation, a one‑year warranty, and a ten‑year support agreement could raise the total to roughly $40,000–$100,000. Therefore, the anticipated contract value is in the low‑to‑mid five‑figure range.
