Reagents for Sequencing in MiSeq and MiniSeq Platforms

Key Details

• What exactly do they need?
• The Navy needs reagents for sequencing in MiSeq and MiniSeq platforms, including library preparation kits and sequencing kits.
• The kits must be designed for library preparation and sequencing, with steps including enzymatic fragmentation, size selection, end-repair, a-tail and ligation, and dual index at the 5 and 3 prime ends.
• The library preparation kit should be designed to construct libraries with a low DNA input (~50ng) with master-mixed reagents ready to use.
• The sequencing kit should allow for more than 150 sequencing cycles and include an internal control to validate the sequencing run.
• What's the contract structure and timeline?
• The contract is a sole-source 8(a) contract.
• The period of performance is in accordance with the deliverables schedule.
• How will they pick the winner?
• The notice doesn't say.
• When and how do you bid?
