- Description
- The U.S. Geological Survey intends to award a noncompetitive purchase order to Roche Applied Science for a GS Junior Instrument (system) along with associated accessories, software, manuals, onsite setup, and training for three persons on the system to be located at the Alaska Science Center at Anchorage, AK. The GS Junior Flex 454 Sequencing System will provide the ASC with a sequencing platform that will generate on average 100,000 reads with a read length distribution between 350-500 base pairs per 10-hour run. This system provides superior performance for certain NGS approaches, such as the sequencing of complex genomes found in plants and polyploid fishes, as larger sequencing reads are possible with this platform relative to other NGS platforms. The Government intends to award this requirement noncompetitively IAW FAR 12 and 13.106-1(b) (1). No other entity is known that can provide this a system which utilizes the proven unique chemistry that is provided only by 454 Life Science, a Roche company, and is sold only through Roche Applied Science. This notice is for informational purposes only and is not a Request for Competitive Quotes. This represents the Governments only written notice of this procurement. Interested concerns may submit a capabilities statement no later than the closing date of this announcement. All submissions will be evaluated to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Place of Performance: Anchorage, AK. This notice and any resulting order conforms to the requirements in place through FAC 05-51 (effective 1 April, 2011). All questions regarding this procurement shall be in writing, addressed to Don Shannon at dshannon@usgs.gov no later than the closing date of this announcement.
