- Description
- Notice of Intent to Sole Source for�Genome-Wide SNP and Genetic Variant Information Service The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order to Psomagen, Inc., 1330 Piccard Drive, Ste 103, Rockville, MD� 20850. In accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1, the Contractor is the only known responsible source who can provide the required services as no other source has been identified who can provide the requirement listed below within the required timeframe of two to three weeks. The NIH requires genome-wide SNP and genetic variant information service.� The goal of this project is to perform genome-wide genotyping service using the Illumina Infinium CoreExon-24 Kit.� The Illumina Infinium CoreExon-24 kit can provide genetic information on over 560,000 SNPs throughout the entire genome.� As part of NIH�s methylation studies on our AMD and aging projects, it is imperative that the genotypes of these samples are known. This DNA microarray kit provides genome-wide SNP and genetic variant information that will be extremely essential for downstream analysis of these samples.� The genotyping is of great urgency as samples have already been subjected to RNA sequencing.� To fully interpret the results, the genotype of the samples must be obtained.� Psomagen, Inc. will perform quality control to confirm DNA quality and quantity, perform genome wide genotyping array service, and produce raw data files for 384 DNA samples. The purpose of this notice is to inform the public that the NIH anticipates issuing a purchase order to Psomagen, Inc. for genome-wide genotyping using the Illumina Infinium CoreExon-24 Kit.� This notice is not a request for competitive quotes.� However, any party that believes it can meet the requirement as stated herein may submit a written capability statement that clearly supports and demonstrates their ability to perform the requirement within the required timeframe. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed award based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. It is anticipated that an award will be issued approximately seven (7) days after�the date of this notice unless the Government determines that another organization�has the capability to meet this requirement. Please email responses to zetherine.gore@nih.hhs.gov no later than 12:00 p.m. EST on Friday, May 7, 2021.�
