When is the deadline for the National Institute of Standards and Technology RFP?

The deadline for this RFP is Jul 28, 2026. Make sure to submit your proposal before this date to be considered.

What is National Institute of Standards and Technology looking for?

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published a combined sources-sought notice and notice of intent to award a sole-source contract for an automated inverted microscope to support its Organ-on-a-Chip / Microphysiological Systems program. NIST seeks an automated, high‑throughput inverted microscope with live‑cell incubation capability, compatibility with existing Zeiss microscopes, multi‑mode imaging (brightfield, widefield fluorescence, phase contrast), motorized stages and high automation for continuous imaging over hours to days; Attachment 1 (minimum technical specifications) is referenced in the notice.

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

We monitor 24/7 and alert you the moment an RFP drops, so you're always first to know. Plus, we track early buying signals—like contract expirations and meeting minutes—months before RFPs are released.

Should I wait for the RFP to be released?

No. If you're not already part of the RFP writing process, you're already behind. Starbridge helps you identify opportunities months early through buying signals like strategic plans, board meeting mentions, contract expirations, and new budgets—so you can influence requirements before competitors even see the RFP.

We auto-fill responses, generate compliance matrices, and provide real-time collaboration tools. Plus, you get verified decision-maker contacts and account intelligence to tailor your approach.
