Verified Procurement Facts
The official DASNY posting lists an issue date of September 4, 2026, a proposal due date of September 28, 2026 at 2:30 PM, contract terms of One Time Purchase, and delivery/service location at Brooklyn College, 2900 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11210. The accessible DASNY page does not expressly state the deadline time zone, so Atlas does not infer one.
Value, Eligibility and Cost Share
The accessible controlling posting does not publish a contract value. This is a procurement rather than a grant, so non-Federal match/cost share is not established as an applicable requirement. Realistic respondents are manufacturers, authorized distributors, or qualified suppliers of laboratory animal cage and bottle washing equipment able to furnish, deliver, and provide the required user training, subject to the complete bid package.
Submission Rules and Required Materials
DASNY identifies a Bid Express Notification attachment and states that purchasing opportunities using Bid Express are governed by the applicable Notice to Bidders. The complete Bid Express package must control the technical specifications, acceptable manufacturers or equivalents, delivery and installation requirements, training, warranty/service obligations, bidder qualifications, pricing, forms, certifications, insurance, MWBE/SDVOB requirements if any, and exact electronic submission mechanics. Atlas will not invent those controls.
Contact and Amendments
The official posting identifies Tabitha Ruiz, Assistant Procurement Administrator, DASNY, telephone 518-257-3203, as the primary contact. The accessible page obfuscates the email address, so Atlas does not reproduce an unverified email. No amendment is identified on the accessible posting reviewed on September 12, 2026; bidders should still check Bid Express for any later addenda before submission.
Atlas Fit Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 72/100. This is a verified, open New York higher-education/laboratory equipment procurement with a clear official solicitation number, due date, and procurement contact, but it is a specialized commodity purchase with limited relevance to Dr. Miltie.
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. The N9+ connected examination platform is not an animal cage/bottle washing system and should not be force-fit. QC Healthcare Fit: 0/100. No clinical staffing, physician-service, or healthcare-delivery scope is established.
Direct-Vendor Assessment
No defensible Dr. Miltie/QC Healthcare direct-vendor path is established by the verified scope. No CRM pursuit, applicant package, or outreach should be created solely to manufacture fit.
Next Action
Retrieve and review the complete Bid Express Notification and bid package before any vendor action. Verify the exact deadline time zone, technical specifications, acceptable manufacturers/equivalents, installation and training requirements, warranty/service terms, bidder qualifications, required forms and certifications, pricing, insurance, MWBE/SDVOB controls, submission mechanics, and all amendments.
