This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested. The Solicitation number is RFQ-NIAID-2081690 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quote (RFQ). This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2021-06 July 12, 2021. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 325414, Biological Product (Except Diagnostic) Manufacturing, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The requirement is being competed full and open, with a brand name restriction, and with a small business set-aside. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) has a requirement for the following items: 1 - Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3' Kit v3.1, 16 rxns; Catalog #1000268, Quantity of 2 2 - Dual Index Kit TT Set A 96 rxns; Catalog #1000215, Quantity of 1 3 - Chromium Next GEM Chip G Single Cell Kit, 48 rxns; Catalog #1000120, Quantity of 2 4 - Chromium Controller & Next GEM Accessory Kit with a 12 Mo. Warranty; Catalog #1000202, Quantity of 1 The NIAID�s Rocky Mountain Lab (RML) requires the use of the 10x Genomics brand Chromium Controller as it is a microfluidics device that can partition large number of B cells for individual barcoding in minutes. This device and kits will be used as a pathway to analyze large numbers of paired heavy and light chain sequences for antibodies against pathogens. This would increase the throughput of our work to identify potent human monoclonal antibodies against pathogens that cause malaria, and other diseases. This device and kits have been used in National Institutes of Health (NIH) research for many years and changing the brand would cause variations in research results. These testing results are used as tools to guide pathogen blocking vaccine design and for the potential to prevent or treat infection by the tick-borne pathogens. The Chromium kits and reagents are specific to the 10x Genomics Chromium Controller; no other kits/reagents are compatible with this instrument and attempting to run third party reagents would not be supported by the instrument manufacturer.
