The National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Institute (NCI), Integrative Tumor Epidemiology Branch (ITEB), Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) Microscopy Core requires the renewal of (1) one software license for whole-genome sequencing.
The Office of Acquisitions (OA), Office of Mission Acquisition Solutions (OMASO plans to procure, on a sole source basis, (1) software license from:
Sentieon, Inc.
160 E. Tasman Drive
San Jose, CA 95134
SAM UEI: GSJUN6H5PFN1
The response close date of this notice is in accordance with FAR 5.203(a)(1). This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 12 and will be made pursuant to the authority in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) and, in accordance with FAR 13, is exempt from requirements in FAR Part 6. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 513210 - Software Publishers; and the small business size standard is $47 million.
This is a procurement of an annual renewal for one (1) software license and ad-hoc software services.
The Integrative Tumor Epidemiology Branch (ITEB), Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) seeks to renew the annual Sentieon software which offers a 20-50× increase in processing speed with identical accuracy to GATK, enabling timely analysis of very large tumor cohorts. However, highly accurate analysis of sequencing data is computationally intensive and creates a bottleneck in the overall sequencing workflow. To address these challenges, ITEB is looking to procure software that will significantly decrease the analysis time and the computational resource requirements for variant detection without compromising accuracy. By eliminating this bottleneck, ITEB can accelerate cancer genomics research with direct relevance to improving clinical outcomes in cancer care.
The software is used to facilitate research analysis with significant clinical importance. Due to the large sample size of tumors ITEB is analyzing, they require software tha...
