The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a civilian federal agency, awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) contract to Illumina, Inc., a manufacturer of genetic and genomic analysis instruments and reagents. The BPA allows NIST to quickly procure Illumina's proprietary sequencing systems, reagents, and consumables to support their genomic research and analysis needs.
Under this BPA, NIST has issued multiple firm fixed price call orders to Illumina, with a total contract value of over $190,000. The call orders provide for the delivery of various Illumina sequencing instruments, including NextSeq, NovaSeq, MiSeq, and iSeq systems, along with accompanying reagents, consumables, sample prep kits, and sequencing chips. The contracted products and services do not utilize any set-aside provisions and are intended to be performed at Illumina's facilities in San Diego, California. This BPA represents Illumina's continued support of genomic research and analysis requirements across multiple federal agencies, including the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Department of Agriculture, and Department of Veterans Affairs.
