- REQUEST FOR INFORMATION RFI TITLE: Mercury Vapor Analyzer (A05063) AGENCY: U.S. Army Medical Material Development Activity (USAMMDA) OFFICE: Warfighter Deployed Medical Systems PMO (WDMS) LOCATION: 1430 Veterans Drive, Fort Detrick, MD 21702-5009 SUBJECT: The Warfighter Deployed Medical Systems PMO of USAMMDA is conducting market research to determine whether a commercial solution can be provided to meet requirements for a new Mercury Vapor Analyzer. This market research may also assist with the further development and/or refinement of the requirements. DISCLAIMER: This is an RFI as defined in FAR 15.201(e) to ascertain whether a commercial item exists that provides the capabilities described herein. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation. Neither unsolicited proposals nor any other kind of offers will be considered in response to this RFI. Responses to this notice are not offers and will not be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. In keeping with the standards of FAR Part 10, the Government may request additional information from responders.

DESCRIPTION: The USAMMDA, Medical Modernization, Deployed Medical Systems PMO has a requirement to identify and procure a commercial Mercury Vapor Analyzer for the Army laboratory equipment sets. The Mercury Vapor Analyzer must be compatible with Army requirements for capability, interoperability with Army equipment, and calibration. The Mercury Vapor Analyzer is used for detection and measurement of toxic mercury vapor in the air. The Mercury Vapor Analyzer unit which is currently used by the Army is no longer procurable and based on outdated technology. The currently fielded JEROME 431-X (Arizona Instrument Inc.) Mercury Vapor Analyzer unit needs to be replaced by a unit with greater accuracy and sensitivity. Without the proper device the army will not be capable of detecting mercury in environmental samples, allowing for warfighter exposure to toxic mercury vapors while performing their mission.
