About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service awarded a $25,380 firm fixed-price purchase order to Bridging Pieces Inc., a minority-owned and woman-owned small business based in Marietta, Georgia, on September 5, 2025. The contract supports the USDA-ARS Grape Genetics Research Unit in Geneva, New York and is designated as a total small business set-aside. Under this contract, Bridging Pieces Inc. will provide widely targeted metabolite and transcriptome analyses on grapevine bud samples treated with biostimulants, specifically seaweed and chitosan extracts. The work leverages specialized scientific capabilities including ultra-performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry to detect and quantify plant metabolites, combined with RNA sequencing technologies, with performance scheduled through March 31, 2026.

The analytical services are intended to support the USDA-ARS mission of understanding grapevine bud responses to environmental stressors, with the ultimate goal of identifying traits for improving cold hardiness in grapevines. Bridging Pieces Inc. brings substantial relevant experience to this engagement, having previously executed complex metabolomic and transcriptomic projects across federal agencies and currently maintaining a $5 million blanket purchase agreement with the U.S. Army Research Development and Engineering Command for metabolomics analysis services. The contract's modest ceiling value reflects the focused scope of processing grapevine samples with a targeted turnaround timeline, consistent with the specialized laboratory analysis services that form a core component of the contractor's federal portfolio.
