- Description
- This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will be made in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6 �Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and solicitation for commercial Items,� as applicable, and as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested. The Solicitation number is RFQ-NIAID-2151967 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (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) 2022-08, 10/28/2022. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 325413 � In Vitro Diagnostic Substance Manufacturing with a size standard of 1250 employees.� This requirement is being competed as Brand name or Equal and without a Small Business Set-Aside.� � The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) has a requirement for the following brand name products manufactured by 10X Genomics: Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 5� HT Kit v2, 48 rxns, Catalog #1000356, qty - 3 each 5�Feature Barcode Kit, 16 rxns, Catalog #1000256, qty - 14 each Library Construction Kit, 16 rxns, Catalog #1000190, qty - 6 each Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 5� Kit v2, 16 rxns, qty - 2 each Shipping and Handling if applicable (FOB Destination) If offering an equal product, Country of Origin, place of manufactured products, must be provided with quote. If quoting an equal product you must show how the quoted equipment/consumables meet these qualifications: The Chromium X Series controller and reagents, powered by Next GEM Technology, provides a precisely engineered reagent delivery method that enables thousands of micro-reactions in parallel. Encapsulate a sample into hundreds to tens of thousands of uniquely addressable partitions in minutes, each containing an identifying barcode for downstream analysis. Each Gel Bead, infused with millions of barcoded oligonucleotides, is mixed with a sample, which can be individual cells or nuclei. Gel Beads and samples are then added to an oil-surfactant solution to create Gel Beads-in-Emulsion (GEMs), which act as individual reaction vesicles in which the Gel Beads are dissolved, and the sample is barcoded. The Chromium Controller and Chromium X Series controller and reagents use a microfluidic chip to provide high-throughput reagent delivery. The 8-sample cartridge is loaded with Gel Beads, Single Cell 5� reagents, a cell suspension and an oil-surfactant solution. Reagents and cells are combined to generate GEMs in such a way that single cells are partitioned with unique, cell-linked molecular barcodes. The simple workflow creates thousands of GEMs per channel in an instrument run time of 90,000 individual nanoliter-scale partitions leveraging ~3.6 million unique barcodes � Capture cells at high efficiency up to 65% � Low doublet rate of 0.9% per 1,000 cells (~0.5% for HT) � Reveal clonality, diversity, antigen specificity, and cellular context � Assemble and annotate full-length V(D)J gene sequences � Pair ? and ? chain TCR sequences from individual T cells � Pair heavy and light chain immunoglobulin (Ig) sequences from individual B cells with full isotype resolution � Simultaneously measure TCR, B cell Ig, cell surface protein expression, and 5� gene expression in the same cells � Map full-length, paired T cell receptors with barcoded pMHC complexes � Map full-length, paired B cell receptors with barcoded antigens � Access the whole transcriptome with an unbiased approach appropriate for discovery work, or focus on a subset of relevant target genes by performing target enrichment of the same library sample prior to sequencing � Simultaneously measure cell surface protein expression with gene expression � Provide turn-key analysis pipelines and visualization software for novice and expert users alike � Include a microfluidics chip that is compatible with a wide range of eukaryotic cell sizes and types (e.g. adherent cell cultures, suspension cell cultures, tissues, blood, etc.) Period of Performance/Delivery: The estimated time of delivery is within 45 days after receipt and acceptance of award to Bethesda, MD 20892. The government intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order to the responsible contractor as a result of this RFQ that will include the terms and conditions set forth herein.� The award will be based on the following; technical capability to meet the brand name requirements, delivery, and price.
