Tenders Are Invited For Research Laboratory Services – Dynamic Purchasing System For Sequencing Services For Human-Derived Biological Samples

Research Laboratory Services – Dynamic Purchasing System For Sequencing Services For Human-Derived Biological Samples. The Contracting Authority Establishes A Dynamic Purchasing System For Sequencing Services For Human-Derived Biological Samples. All Suppliers Meeting The Suitability Requirements Will Be Admitted To The System. Individual Procurements Will Be Conducted Through Mini-Competitions Within The Dps. The Procedure Is Fully Electronic. This Dynamic Purchasing System Covers Sequencing And Associated Laboratory And Bioinformatics Services For Human-Derived Biological Samples. The Dps Is Platform-Agnostic And Includes Services Performed Using Commercially Available Sequencing, Enrichment, And Single-Cell Analysis Technologies, Such As But Not Limited To: Sequencing Modalities Whole Genome Sequencing (Wgs), Whole Exome Sequencing (Wes) Targeted Dna And Rna Sequencing (Custom And Standardized Panels) Rna-Seq (Bulk), Single-Cell And Single-Nucleus Rna-Seq Atac-Seq (Bulk), Single-Cell And Single-Nucleus Atac-Seq Chip-Seq And Chromatin-State Profiling Hi-C And Related Genome Conformation Assays Sequencing Platforms (Non-Exhaustive, Non-Binding Examples) -Short-Read Sequencing Platforms, Including Optical- And Chemistry-Based Systems -Long-Read Sequencing Platforms, Including Single-Molecule Real-Time And Nanopore-Based Systems -Capillary Electrophoresis Sanger Sequencing Systems (E.G., Platforms Commonly Represented By Abi 3730/3500 Series Or Equivalent) -Two-Color And Novel Chemistry Short-Read Platforms (E.G., Platforms Comparable To Aviti Or Equivalent) Single-Cell And Enrichment Systems (Non-Binding Examples) -Microfluidics- And Droplet-Based Single-Cell Workflows (E.G., Platforms Comparable To 10X Genomics Chromium Or Equivalent) -Hybrid Capture And Target Enrichment Kits/Workflows (E.G., Systems Comparable To Twist Bioscience Target Capture Or Equivalent) The Dps Also Covers: -Sample Reception, Qc, And Nucleic Acid Preparation -Library Preparation And Enrichment -Sequencing Execution -Primary, Secondary, And Optional Tertiary Bioinformatics Analysis -Secure Data Delivery And Optional Data Archiving All Platforms And Workflows Offered Must Be Commercially Validated, Reproducible, And Compliant With Biosafety And Data Protection Requirements For Human-Derived Materials. Dynamic Purchasing System (Dps) Operating Model A Dynamic Purchasing System (Dps) Is An Entirely Electronic Procurement Framework Used To Purchase Goods, Services, Or Works That Are Commonly Available On The Market. Unlike A Traditional Framework Agreement, The Dps Remains Open For New Suppliers To Join At Any Time During Its Validity, As Long As They Meet The Selection Criteria. How The Dps Works: 1. Establishment Of The Dps The Contracting Authority Defines The Procurement Scope, Requirements, And Supplier Qualification Criteria. A Contract Notice Is Published, And The Dps Is Set Up As An Electronic System (E.G., In An E-Procurement Platform). No Suppliers Or Prices Are Selected At This Stage—Only The System Is Created. 2. Supplier Admission Suppliers Can Apply To Join The Dps A
