Whole plasmid sequencing

The University of Virginia awarded a contract to Eurofins Genomics LLC on August 8, 2026, with a cumulative contract value of twelve dollars. The prime contractor will deliver whole plasmid sequencing services under purchase order A207_PO-0446301-V3. The line item specification calls for twelve units of whole plasmid sequencing at a unit price of one dollar each, to be delivered to the buyer.

While the specific period of performance and place of performance are not explicitly stated in the contract documentation, the award is associated with the Commonwealth of Virginia. The minimal contract value and straightforward scope of work—consisting solely of a single line item for plasmid sequencing services—suggests this represents either a test order, a pilot project component, or a supplemental delivery order within a larger blanket purchase agreement framework with the service provider.
