Quick Summary
The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Basin (LCB), specifically the Yuma Area Office, has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a contract to Hach Company for annual maintenance, calibration, and support services for their Hach AT1000 and DR1300 FL Fluorometer equipment. This is a non-competitive action. Inquiries from other responsible sources are due by May 18, 2026.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for annual on-site preventative maintenance, calibration, and certification services, along with technical support and software upgrades training and phone technical support for Hach AT1000 and DR1300 FL Fluorometer equipment.
