- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to New York University School of Medicine for microbiome analyses of environmental samples, oral wash, skin swab and nasal swab samples. Analyses will include DNA extraction, isolation and sequencing including amplicon library preparation and subsequent analysis of 16S rDNA sequences. New York University is the only potential vendor that can perform the required microbiome analyses because these analyses are part of a follow-up survey that relates back to analyses conducted by New York University during the 2013 medical and environmental surveys for health and hazard evaluation. A commercial laboratory would not be appropriate for this requirement because the assays used in these analyses are only available on a research basis. The use of the same laboratory ensures that the samples are analyzed using the same technical procedures and, therefore, the data can be confidently combined with the results of the previous tests for future research studies and publications. This contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (SAP) and 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all responses received within fifteen (15) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Any response should be emailed to the contract specialist at lrv4@cdc.gov by COB 28 February 2017.
