Tender Details

Description

The National Cancer Institute (NCI)-s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) Integrative Tumor Epidemiology Branch (ITEB) plans to procure on a sole source basis software for whole-genome sequencing.

This acquisition will be processed in accordance with simplified acquisition procedures as stated in FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1) via request for written quotation.

Only one (1) award will be made as a result of this solicitation. This will be awarded as a firm fixed price type contract. The Period of Performance is estimated to be a base period of twelve (12) months from the effective date stated in the award.

BACKGROUND

Recent advances in next generation sequencing technologies have dramatically increased the rate of data output while significantly reducing costs. The Integrative Tumor Epidemiology Branch (ITEB), Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG), National Cancer Institute (NCI) is currently analyzing a large number of tumor and normal tissue samples of lung cancer and kidney cancer and plan to analyze additional cancer types in the future using whole-genome sequencing (WGS). 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 a software that will significantly decrease the analysis time and the computational resource requirements for variant detection without compromising accuracy. The software will result is a 20-to-50-fold increase in processing speed on the same hardware with results that are identical to the currently used GATK pipeline. Due to the large sample size of tumors we are analyzing, a software that can provide variant calling at high speed is essential for our ongoing and planned projects.

TYPE OF ORDER

It is anticipated that this requirement will be a firm fixed price purchase order
