About this file
This is a Statement of Work for a 12-month service contract issued by the United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Plant Science Research Unit, located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The contract requires comprehensive maintenance and support services for an LGC Genomics oKtopure DNA isolation robotic instrument used to process 800-1,600 DNA samples daily from plant tissue for high-throughput screening utilizing marker and genomic selection protocols.
The service contract encompasses preventative maintenance including instrument inspection, re-assembly and calibration of the 96-channel Dispense Head, software upgrades to current production status (without hardware or operating system upgrades), and replacement of any failed or defective components during normal operation. The contractor must provide unlimited service visits during the 12-month term, including all labor and travel expenses. The contractor is responsible for ensuring the instrument maintains pipetting accuracy to preserve sample integrity without contamination risk and must provide correct installation and training on robotics to maintain proper alignment with reagent and sample reservoirs required by the Eastern Regional Small Grains Genotyping Laboratory's customized isolation protocols. The anticipated coverage period begins September 31, 2026, and runs through September 30, 2027, with two additional option years available.

Statement of work
The United State Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Plant Science Research Unit, Raleigh, North Carolina requires:
A 12-month Service Contract for the LGC Genomics oKtopure DNA isolation robotic instrument to maintain calibration of the 96-channel Dispense Head along with plate & protocol settings by keeping the instrument operations software upgraded.
The Instrument is used to isolate 800-1600 DNA samples/day from plant tissue for high-throughput screening using marker and genomic selection protocols.
The pipetting accuracy of the instrument is key to maintaining sample integrity without risk of contamination, and the correct installation & training of robotics is essential to maintain alignment with the reagent & sample reservoirs required by the customized isolation protocols used by the Eastern Regional Small Grains Genotyping Laboratory.
Requirements:
The Service Contract includes preventative maintenance
(i) Inspection of the instrument;
(ii) Re-assembly & calibration of the instrument
(iii) Upgrade of any software to the current production status as can be done without a hardware or operating system upgrade;
(iv) Replacement of any component(s) that have failed or are otherwise defective during normal operation of the instrument
(v) And unlimited service visits during the Term (12-months) including labor and travel expenses
Coverage date anticipated beginning 9/31/2026 through 9/30/2027 + 2 options years
