About this award

Element Biosciences, Inc., a San Diego-based small disadvantaged business specializing in next-generation DNA sequencing technologies, was awarded a $256,000 firm fixed-price purchase order by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service on September 24, 2025. The contract, designated as a total small business set-aside, calls for the delivery of an Element AVITI System—a benchtop sequencing platform capable of whole genome and amplicon sequencing—to College Station, Texas, with completion required by December 30, 2025. The procurement was structured under a lowest-price technically acceptable evaluation methodology and includes the sequencing system itself, freight costs, and individually addressable lanes enablement capability. The award represents an upgrade from the customer's existing Illumina MiSeq instrument, with a trade-in value exceeding $40,000 incorporated into the transaction.

The contract delivery includes installation and training services, with a minimum 12-month warranty provided by Element Biosciences. The AVITI System's dual independent flowcells and rolling circle amplification technology align with the Agricultural Research Service's genomic research capabilities, supporting the agency's mission in agricultural science and veterinary genetics applications. This award continues Element Biosciences' established relationship with USDA and other federal agencies, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, demonstrating the company's track record in providing high-performance sequencing equipment to support national research priorities across multiple federal facilities.
