Integrated Bioengineering Platform

The Naval Research Laboratory seeks potential sources for an Integrated Bioengineering Platform to integrate various instruments for biotechnology research and development, including a DNA synthesizer, thermal cyclers, plate peelers, sealers, fragment analyzers, sonicators, plate readers, centrifuges, liquid handlers, incubators, and barcode labelers, controlled by a single PC with necessary instrument drivers and modifications. Interested parties are to submit capability statements by January 25, 2024 demonstrating relevant technical capabilities and commercial availability to meet the specifications outlined in the attached documents, including an articulated robotic arm, scratch-resistant surfaces, instrument cabinets, a 10-position carousel, centrifuge autoloader, integrated power panel, sliding instrument supports, and factory and site acceptance testing and training.

There is no set-aside designated for this pre-solicitation notice. The main NAICS code is 334516 and PSC code is J070. No incumbent or current contractors are identified. The attached specifications provide details on key components and software functionality for scheduling, data recording and reporting, sample tracking, process editing and custom scripting required of the integrated bioengineering platform but do not indicate award values or timelines for delivery or period of performance.
