The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a non-competitive, firm-fixed-price purchase order to Leica Microsystems for a service agreement covering a Leica Stellaris DIVE Confocal Multiphoton Microscope. The required services include an annual preventative maintenance visit, unlimited on-site repairs with parts and labor, prioritized response for critical repairs, and technical support, all performed by factory-trained engineers. Performance will take place at the NIH’s Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Montana, with a period of performance from September 1, 2026, to August 31, 2027. This acquisition is necessary because the microscope is the only one at the facility capable of imaging live animal, tissue, and organoid samples, and its downtime would severely impact major research programs. No budget amount is specified in the description.
