Specifically, 1 Each EP1-HX-FC1 System, includes: EP1 Reader, Data Collection Software, Genotyping Analysis Software (20 seats), Digital PCR Analysis Software (20 seats), IFC Controller NX (96.96), Stand Alone FC1 Thermal Cycler, Electronic Manual, with 1 Year Instrument warranty coverage (parts, labor, travel); 1 EACH, EP1SFT-MNT, EP1 Reader Software Maintenance Plan, includes: 1 Year Maintenance Plan for Data Collection Software, 1 Year Maintenance Plan on Data Analysis Software for Genotyping Application, Unlimited Phone Technical Support, and Call Response time within 1 Business Day; 1 EACH, EP1-SVC-INT, EP1 System Installation; and 1 EACH, EP1-TRN-STD, Includes: EP1 System Standard Training (1 day), EP1 System overview and in depth instruction on one application, with Onsite customer training for up to 5 users. The Government intends to award this requirement noncompetitively IAW FAR parts 12 and 13.106-1(b),(1) to Fluidigm Corporation. Fluidigm Corporation is the only platform that uses SNP genotyping technology with variable -quantity or poor quality DNA (e.g. from hairs, feathers, scales, museum samples). The system is solely produced by Fluidigm and the key components are patented and designed to operate as an integrated system. Further the Dynamic and Digital Array IFC's will utilize licensed assays, such as 5' nuclease assays supplied by Life Technologies. No other third party systems or components are known to be licensed to use the Fluidigm instrument or Dynamic / Digital Array IFCs. The data generated by the Fluidgm instrument from experiments run with IFCs that can be exported into a variety of common formats for processing in external third party or proprietary software (which include file import mechanisms supporting the common formats). Other interested concerns having the ability to furnish these supplies / services shall submit a capabilities statement to the Contracting Officer no later than the closing date of this announcement. All submissions will be evaluated to determine if competitive opportunities exist. This is NOT an RFQ. This does represent the Government's only written notice of this procurement.

This notice and any resulting contract or order conforms to the requirements in place through FAC 05-44 (effective 08 JUL 2010). All questions regarding this procurement shall be in writing, and addressed to Cheryl Fitch at cfitch@usgs.gov no later than 08/09/2010.
