USDA, AMS, has a requirement for purchase of 5 grain moisture meters.
We are seeking interested sources from small-businesses that are capable of providing a supply that meets the following specification:
USDA/ AMS / FGIS requires that its official moisture instruments conform to National Type Evaluation Program requirements so they can be used for commercial as well as official grain inspection.

USDA / AMS / FGIS calibration accuracy criteria, more restrictive than the NTEP requirements, mandates that the average difference between the results from a meter model and the USDA air oven method must not exceed +/- 0.15 percent moisture (for the most recent three years of data for the NTEP grains and for five years of data for the minor grains). The tolerance is increased slightly if the number of available samples is small. Tolerances for agreement between UGMA-Compatible meter models and AMS-s master UGMA system are defined in CRITERIA FOR UNIFIED GRAIN MOISTURE ALGORITHM (UGMA) AND OFFICIAL SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY (available on the AMS website). Must operate at temperatures between 36 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit Must be supplied with 110-120V, 50/60hz power input 7 inch touch screen display Memory storage for 3,000 measurements Three to seven USB ports for software upgrades, USB devices, printer, and peripherals Not to be greater than 20 inches high X 20 inches wide X 20 inches deep Not to weigh more than 30 pounds Moisture range to be detected 5% to 45% (depending on the grain)The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 333111 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees for this procurement.
