Cepheid is the manufacturer and a unique source for GeneXpert Reagents and Test Kits which are capable of fulfilling the Government s needs.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 325413 and the size standard is 1,250 employees.
No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive quotes; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement.
