THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT AND NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATIONS This notice is published in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.101(a)(1) requiring the dissemination of information regarding proposed contract actions. �This is a Notice of Intent to award a sole source, firm-fixed price purchase order under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 13.106-1(b)(2) and 13.501(a) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements and is not a request for competitive proposals.� The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with SomaLogic, Inc., 2945 Wilderness PL, Boulder, Colorado 80301-2255. �� This acquisition will procure a SomaLogic SomaScan 7K HTS Kits for the Center for Human Immunology, Inflammation, and Autoimmunity (CHI), DIR, NIAID.� CHI/DIR/NIAID develops and applies systems biology approaches�combining computation, modeling, and experiments�to study the immune system at the organismal, cellular, and molecular levels.� The proteomic data generated from the samples run on the assay from this acquisition will be coupled to information from orthogonal experimental techniques to uncover a systems immunology-based model of disease.� Currently, the CHI performs systems biology research on several biological matrices, and this acquisition will provide significant advancement in the information that can be extracted from these samples.� It enables highly multiplexed (>7,000 analytes) and high throughput (96 samples per kit) analysis of 7,000 proteins in clinical samples (serum, plasma, cell lysates, tissue homogenates, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid).� The CHI has successfully harnessed this technology since 2014 for use on CHI projects, as well as offering it to the greater NIH intramural community as a fee-for-service platform.� In 2022, the CHI upgraded the platform to the latest version, investing significant resources into new equipment, and weeks of work into operator training.� The CHI is the only laboratory at the NIH that is permitted, certified, and approved by the manufacturer to use SomaLogic SomaScan 7K HTS Kits. Delivery: Delivery of equipment is needed as soon as possible. Purchase order will be awarded on or before September 21, 2022. �Estimated lead time for delivery of equipment is 60-90 days upon Vendor�s receipt of the purchase order. The North American Industry Classification (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 541714 - Research and Development in Biotechnology (except Nanobiotechnology), with a 2022 size standard of 1,000 employees. �SomaLogic, Inc. is a small business. � This will be the only notice of the Government's intent to solicit, negotiate, and award to one source to satisfy this requirement. �The Government plans to award a contract for this requirement by September 21, 2022. The statutory authority for this sole source requirement is 41 U.S.C. 253 (c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(b)(1)(i) only one source available, no substitutions possible.� THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTATIONS.� All responsible sources that can provide the SomaLogic SomaScan 7K HTS Kits should submit a capability statement via email to Jillian Marconi at Jillian.Marconi@nih.gov and Daveta Brown at Daveta.Brown@nih.gov by 5:00pm EST on Wednesday, September 14, 2022. �A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government.� Any responses received by NIAID after this date and exact time specified are late and will not be considered.� This notice does not obligate the Government to award a contract or otherwise pay for any information provided in response.� The Government reserves the right to use information provided by respondents for any purpose deemed necessary and legally appropriate.� Any organization responding to this notice should ensure that its response is complete and sufficiently detailed to allow the Government to determine the organization�s qualifications to perform the work.� Respondents are advised that the Government is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of the information received or provide feedback to respondents with respect to any information submitted. For additional information or to submit responses, please contact Jillian Marconi at Jillian.Marconi@nih.gov and Daveta Brown at Daveta.Brown@nih.gov.
