Description
The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Plant Protection and Quarantine Program seeks a small, twin-screw extruder for use in a laboratory setting at Otis Joint Base Cape Cod, MA. It will be used in support of the development of an artificial diet for the invasive tree pest Emerald Ash Borer, Agrilus planipennis (EAB). Development of an artificial diet is a critical step in allowing the EAB biocontrol program to meet their insect rearing goals year round and remove the dependency on natural food sources that are difficult to obtain in the winter months. The twin-screw extruder must be capable of mixing and extruding tough, dough-like products into a variety of forms and textures, critical for EAB diet production.
The NAICS code for this procurement is 333241, with a small business size standard of 500 employees. A solicitation will be issued this week on an unrestricted basis. Questions concerning this synopsis should be directed to Jim Roloff, contracting officer, by email at [email protected].
