About this IDV

The Environmental Protection Agency Office of Research and Development awarded an indefinite delivery contract to Biospyder Technologies, Inc. to provide targeted RNA sequencing analyses. The contract includes a potential value of $9.5 million over five years to evaluate treatment-related changes in gene expression from animal and plant samples.

Three firm fixed price delivery orders have been issued against the contract. The first calls for analyses of 97 to 5,000 RNA samples at $123,951 to support research into effects of environmental exposures on human health. The second is valued at $213,702 for analyses of 97 to 5,000 samples to further analytical services supporting EPA's research programs. The third is worth $204,074 to analyze 2,171 RNA samples through November 2022. Places of performance include Carlsbad, California.

The original solicitation sought proposals for high-throughput gene expression profiling of up to 50,000 protein coding genes from RNA, cDNA libraries or tissue lysates of ecotoxicological species. The contract was set aside for small businesses and aims to measure multi-plexed transcriptomic changes to advance the agency's understanding of environmental impacts on living organisms.
