Scope
NOTICE OF INTENT – SOLE-SOURCE ACQUISITION Notice No.: 75N98027Q00020 The National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Ibstitute (NCI), intends to award a Firm-Fixed-Price Purchase Order to Plasmidsaurus Inc. for RNA sequencing and whole genome sequencing services for various wild-type, drug-treated cell lines and samples related to CRISPR research.
Description of the Requirement The primary objective of this study is to investigate common lymphoma-related translocations involving MYC, BCL6, or BCL2, while also examining copy number alterations and making CNV calls for genes of interest.
To achieve this, RNA sequencing will be provided for samples generated in the Staudt laboratory.
RNA sequencing is essential for characterizing genome edits and conducting transcriptomic analysis.
By utilizing Plasmidsaurus, a faster and more scalable alternative to traditional sequencing methods based on the latest Oxford Nanopore Technologies platform, we aim to generate results that will deepen our understanding of cellular mechanisms involved in B-cell lymphoma and guide future downstream experiments.
RNA sequencing and Whole-genome sequencing are required to observe the effects of various drugs on gene expression, identify pathways, and discover novel pathways.
Justification for the Proposed Sole-Source Acquisition The Government intends to solicit from a single source pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
Plasmidsaurus uses the latest Oxford Nanopore Technologies platform, a faster, more scalable alternative to traditional sequencing.
Using the latest Oxford Nanopore Technologies platform ensures accurate sequencing, which is crucial for reproducible experiments which will significantly advance our...

How to bid on this
This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.
- Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
- Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
- Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
- Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
