Description

The Iowa Department of Criminal Investigation Crime Laboratory seeks a qualified vendor to perform annual on‑site preventative maintenance and calibration of its laboratory pipettes. The work includes both single‑channel (≈215 units) and multi‑channel (≈27 units) pipettes, with a focus on DNA and toxicology applications. The vendor must be ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited, capable of serving an ANAB/ASCLD‑accredited crime lab, and must provide detailed calibration certificates that meet strict statistical and environmental reporting requirements. The contract runs for one year beginning 1 June 2026, with an option for up to five one‑year extensions. • Perform on‑site calibration in the fall (spring for ~20 toxicology pipettes) with a 5‑day completion window once on site. • Deliver ISO‑compliant certificates for each pipette, including As‑Found and As‑Left data (3 volumes, ≥10 repetitions per volume/channel). • Provide a one‑year warranty, labels for calibrated pipettes, and optional on‑site/off‑site repair services.

Budget estimate

$50,000 – $120,000

Based on an estimated 242 pipettes (215 single‑channel + 27 multi‑channel) calibrated once per year, with typical calibration fees ranging from $150‑$300 per unit plus travel and reporting costs, the total contract value is likely between $50,000 and $120,000. The lower bound assumes $150 per pipette and minimal travel; the upper bound assumes $300 per pipette, higher‑complexity multi‑channel work, and additional on‑site repair services.
