The NCI Genomic Characterization Centers Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a comprehensive federal contract vehicle designed to support advanced cancer genomic research through systematic characterization of tumor genomic alterations. Awarded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), this vehicle will support high-resolution genomic research across four distinct technical pools: High Throughput DNA Sequencing, High Throughput RNA Sequencing, Epigenetic Characterization, and Single-Cell/Single-Nuclei Sequencing. The contract is structured to allow up to sixteen prime contractors to receive task orders, with an anticipated five-year performance period starting around August 2024.

Task orders under this IDIQ are expected to be either firm fixed price or cost reimbursement, with a focus on generating comprehensive genomic data for cancer research. The contract emphasizes rapid data generation and sharing, requiring contractors to transmit validated data to the NCI Genomic Data Commons within four weeks of generation. While specific task order details are not provided, the vehicle is designed to support genomic research across multiple cancer types, with an estimated shared ceiling of $149,974,285. The solicitation indicates a preference for small business participation, potentially including HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, 8(a), women-owned, and small disadvantaged businesses. The primary performance location is anticipated to be research laboratories capable of conducting advanced genomic sequencing and analysis, likely distributed across multiple academic and research institutions nationwide.
