Description
Description:� This is a Sources Sought notice. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding the availability and capability of all qualified sources to perform a potential requirement. This notice is issued to help determine the availability of qualified companies technically capable of meeting the Government requirement and to determine the method of acquisition.� It is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately award a contract.� Responses will not be considered as proposals or quotes.� No award will be made as a result of this notice.� The Government will NOT be responsible for any costs incurred by the respondents to this notice.� This notice is strictly for research and information purposes only. Background:� The National Institute on Aging (NIA) is proposing to create a national resource of isogenic sets of Alzheimer�s Disease and Related Dementias mutation iPSC lines, complimented by foundational phenotypic datasets from differentiated disease-relevant cells derived from these lines to use in the single cell neuron 10x experiment. It is anticipated that this resource will substantially accelerate the pace of mechanistic discovery regarding how Alzheimer�s Disease and Related Dementia mutations cause disease. Purpose and Objectives: This acquisition is necessary to provide chromium cell kits and reagents to the NIA�s Laboratory of Neurogenetics in the single cell neuron 10x experiment for neurodegenerative disease research for gene expression analysis Project Requirements: Salient characteristics of this request include: �1- Chromium Next GEM Single Cell ATAC Library & Gel Bead Kit v1.1, 16 rxns, Procudt Code: 1000175 1-�Chromium Next GEM Single Cell ATAC Library & Gel Bead Kit v1.1, 4 rxns, Product Code:�1000176 1- Chromium Next GEM Chip H Single Cell Kit, 48 rxns, Product Code:�1000161� Shipping and Handling (included)� Other important considerations: All deliverables required under this contract shall be packaged, marked and shipped in accordance with Government specifications. At a minimum, all deliverables shall be marked with the contract number and Contractor name. The Contractor shall guarantee that all required materials shall be delivered in immediate usable and acceptable condition. Vendor shall be able to provide the following specifications: Delivers paired full-length T-cell receptor alpha and beta chain sequences at the single cell level using universal and unbiased amplification strategies, thus avoiding amplification and detection bias associated with complex multiplex PCR while revealing deeper biological complexity of antigen specificity on a per-cell basis than single-chain (e.g. TCR?) methods. The incorporation of a unique molecular identifier (UMI) in the template switch oligo enables transcript quantification and further reduces systematic bias by The incorporation of a unique molecular identifier (UMI) in the template switch oligo enables transcript quantification and further reduces systematic bias by controlling for non-biological SNVs or other variants introduced by PCR and sequencing error. � Enables the detection of germline and somatic variation across full-length antigen receptor V(D)J gene sequences. � Identifies both productive and non-productive recombination events as well as adaptive immune cells with more than one productive T-cell receptor alpha or beta chain. � Maps transcription start sites. Delivery Date: Delivery date of 2 months after receipt of completed purchase order. Period of Performance: Manufacturer warranty for one calendar year beginning date of receipt. Capability statement /information sought. Respondent shall provide a capability statement that clearly identifies how their proposed solution may meet the Government�s needs. The respondent must also provide their DUNS number, organization name, address, point of contact, and size and type of business (e.g., 8(a), HubZone, etc., pursuant to the applicable NAICS code and any other information that may be helpful in developing or finalizing the acquisition requirements. One (1) copy of the response is required and must be in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF format using 11-point or 12-point font, 8-1/2� x 11� paper size, with 1� top, bottom, left and right margins, and with single or double spacing. The information submitted must be in an outline format that addresses each of the elements of the project requirement and in the capability statement /information sought paragraphs stated herein.� A cover page and an executive summary may be included but is not required. The response is limited to ten (10) page limit.� The 10-page limit does not include the cover page, executive summary, or references, if requested. The response must include the respondents� technical and administrative points of contact, including names, titles, addresses, telephone and fax numbers, and e-mail addresses. All responses to this notice must be submitted electronically to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer. Facsimile responses are NOT accepted. The response must be submitted to Diedra Prophet at e-mail address Diedra.Prophet@nihgov and Karen Mahon at Karen.Mahon@nih.gov. � The response must be received on or before June 8, 2020, at 2:00 pm, Eastern Time. Disclaimer and Important Notes:� This notice does not obligate the Government to award a contract or otherwise pay for the 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. After a review of the responses received, a presolicitation synopsis and solicitation may be published in Federal Business Opportunities. However, responses to this notice will not be considered adequate responses to a solicitation. Confidentiality: No proprietary, classified, confidential, or sensitive information should be included in your response. The Government reserves the right to use any non-proprietary technical information in any resultant solicitation(s).
