About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) Western Regional Research Center (WRRC) awarded a $11,732 firm fixed-price BPA (Blanket Purchase Agreement) call to Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. on September 13, 2017, with final completion on October 6, 2017. The contract procures Pacific Biosciences reagent kits, SMRT (Single Molecule Real-Time) cells, and laboratory equipment in support of ongoing food-borne toxin detection and prevention research at the Albany, California facility. No set-aside designation was applied to this award. The procurement demonstrates the USDA's reliance on Pacific Biosciences' advanced sequencing technologies and consumables for agricultural research applications.

This BPA call represents a task order under a larger procurement vehicle with Pacific Biosciences, reflecting the established vendor relationship between the USDA ARS and the biotechnology company. Pacific Biosciences specializes in long-read DNA and RNA sequencing systems and supporting consumables, serving as a critical supplier to federal research institutions. The company maintains significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts with multiple federal agencies, including a $13.5 million IDIQ with USDA ARS (awarded July 2021 through June 2026) and a $1 million IDIQ with the FDA (awarded March 2021 through March 2026), both enabling flexible procurement of sequencing platforms, reagents, and services. The Albany location aligns with WRRC's commitment to conducting specialized food safety research supporting agricultural policy and public health objectives.
