About this opportunity

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service Research Service Pacific Northwest Research Station has published a Special Notice for its intent to award a sole source contract to Thermo Fisher to acquire the KingFisher Duo Prime Purification System. This Notice is not a solicitation for competitive proposals, but rather an announcement of the agency's plans to obtain this specific DNA purification system through a sole source contract.

The purpose of this sole source award is to support two Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) projects, ERR09 and ERR10, which involve detecting invasive forest pathogens in the US and internationally. The KingFisher Duo Prime Purification System is required due to its unique magnetic bead technology that can extract high-quality and high-yield DNA, RNA, and proteins from various biological samples, which is essential for the success of these projects. The agency intends to award the sole source contract to Thermo Fisher, as the conventional equipment used previously was unable to produce the required DNA quality and yield from the forest soil samples.
