20260817-Protein ID, data acquisition and data and 2 more items

Northwestern University was awarded a contract by Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University on August 19, 2026, with a cumulative value of $920. The contract encompasses three distinct line items focused on protein analysis and laboratory services. The deliverables include protein identification with data acquisition and delivery (2 units at $300 each), additional manual data analysis services at one-hour increments (2 units at $150 each), and desalting services (2 units at $10 each). All services are to be delivered to Heryakusuma Christian.

The contract represents a service agreement for specialized laboratory work related to protein analysis and sample preparation. While the contract value is nominal at $920, the deliverables suggest a focused, limited-scope engagement for specific analytical services. The absence of specified performance periods and annual value data in the contract documentation limits visibility into the full scope and timeline of the engagement, though the August 19, 2026 award date establishes the contract initiation point. Performance is anticipated to occur within Virginia through Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University's procurement mechanism.
