Summary
The opportunity titled 'B--RFI - MICADAS analyses plant macrofossil samples' is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to gather insights from qualified vendors capable of performing high-precision analyses of small plant macrofossil samples using the Mini Carbon Dating System (MICADAS). The work involves preparing samples to remove contaminants and conducting radiocarbon analyses with a focus on efficiency and cost-effectiveness, allowing for the analysis of a larger number of samples at potentially lower precision. Contractors with expertise in radiocarbon dating, particularly those familiar with MICADAS technology and the specific sample preparation methods outlined, are encouraged to respond. This opportunity is particularly suited for businesses specializing in environmental science, geological surveys, or analytical laboratory services.
