GENERAL
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Institute (NCI), Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Techology (CBIIT) plans to procure, on a sole source basis, two (2) Dynamic Read Analysis for Genomics (DRAGEN) v4 servers with Genomic Analysis Tool Kit (GATK) software and associated software services from:
Illumina Inc5200 Illumina WaySan Diego, CA 92122-4616
The response close date of the notice for this requirement is in accordance with FAR 5.203(b). This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 12 - Acquisition for Commercial Items and will be made pursuant to the authority in FAR Part 13.106-1 (b)(1) / 13.501(a), and is exempt from the requirements of FAR Part 6. The North American Industry Classification System code is 541519 and the business size standard is 150 employees.
The National Cancer Institute currently uses DRAGEN processors from Illumina to process data produced by Illumina NextGen sequencing instruments. The DRAGEN-GATK v4 uses Illumina's standard genomic processing workflow built on gated array hardware. This combination improves processing speed for genomic data by 30x over standard DRAGEN processors. Data processed by DRAGEN servers will be used to accelerate clinical decision-making in cancer-related research where time may be extremely limited. Thus, it is critically important to maximize the speed that these data are processed to support better research outcomes.Additionally, the DRAGEN v4 processor compresses data in a manner that saves between 50-80% of storage, and provide proprietary software plug-ins which allow the compressed data to be analyzed without decompressing. No other manufacturer produces comparable hardware with software which can process data from Illumina NextSeq sequences, and allows the end-user to maximize processing speed and data compression. Illumina is the sole manufacturer and sole distributer of DRAG...
