The above referenced solicitation is hereby amended to respond to technical questions submitted.
1. The following questions and responses are hereby provided.
| QUESTION #1: | Installation and Training…. the specific fluid types are not clearly stated in the Statement of Work Specification. Can you please specify what fluid types are required for calibration at installation? |
| RESPONSE #1: | Reference the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation, Section IV.B. |
QUESTION #2: For requirements 11 and 13. We will update our statement to reflect the changes in the SOW that specify water. This change makes the requirement identical to Requirement #13 in terms of the performance of the instrument. Can you specify how these requirements (2.5 nl water dispense) would be different (requirements 11 and 13) outside of the eventual application from a performance standpoint?
RESPONSE #2: The difference is that spec 13 requires 1-minute transfer time from any well to any well of a 384 well plate
QUESTION #3: If the requirement is that the instrument shall integrate with Labcyte Access software, please specify that Labcyte is willing to write a driver for the ATS. The capability to of integrating a device under scheduling software is driven by the software manufacturer, not the instrument manufacturer.
RESPONSE #3: The ability to integrate with Labcyte Access Workstation is and always has been a specification.
| This can be done with Labcyte Access software or another software solution. NIST cannot |
| specify what Labcyte will or will not do. |
QUESTION #4: Are you planning to integrate this instrument into the Labcyte Access Software?
RESPONSE #4: NIST is planning to integrate this with multiple instruments including a Access Laboratory
| Workstation, a BioTek MultiFlo dispenser and at least one instrument for each of the following |
| classes: Plate Sealer; Plate Peeler; Centrifuge; and Microplate Storage Rack. |
The following information is hereby provided with respect to requirements 18 & 19:
Drivers must already exist that integrate this instrument with a Access Laboratory Workstation with the capability to integrate with a BioTek MultiFlo dispenser and at least one instrument for each of the following classes: Plate Sealer; Plate Peeler; Centrifuge; and Microplate Storage Rack. NIST requires a turnkey solution and does not have the know-how or time to develop drivers for multiple instruments.
The due date for quotations remains unchanged.
