About this opportunity

The purpose of this pre-solicitation notice is to procure laboratory analysis services for metabolomics assays on human serum samples from Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients. The Defense Health Agency seeks a contractor to receive 270 serum samples from the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR), perform metabolomics and lipidomics analyses using a validated liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) pipeline, and provide the resulting data to WRAIR within three months. Pending the verification of initial results, WRAIR may exercise option years to have the contractor analyze an additional 100 samples annually. The agency is seeking information from vendors on their technical capabilities and existing commercial services to meet these requirements.

This pre-solicitation notice does not include any set-aside designations. The likely NAICS code is 541714 (Research and Development in Biotechnology) and the PSC is R425 (Research and Development - Biotechnology). No incumbent contractors are named. The total value of this potential contract is not specified, but the description indicates it will involve the analysis of 270 initial samples and up to 100 additional samples per year for any option periods exercised.

Notice text

The purpose of this requirement is to provide laboratory analysis for metabolomics assays on human serum samples in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients. The vendor will receive 270 human serum samples from WRAIR, perform metabolomics assays on samples and provide WRAIR the data from the assay. The unique component of this research methodology is the utilization of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometer (LC/MS) platform. The LC/MS platform processes the human serum samples and uses a validated analytical pipeline that annotates the spectral features to determine the unique metabolite profile findings. If base year results are verified across existing datasets Medical Readiness Systems Biology (MRSB) will require further analyses and will intend to exercise option years. Each option year, the vendor will receive 100 human serum samples from WRAIR, perform metabolomics assays on samples and provide WRAIR the deliverable assay data sets via DoDSAFE. The laboratory analysis for metabolomics and lipidomics profiles is projected to be conducted off-site, at the vendor’s laboratory. No geographical or location limitations are expected to influence the services provided by the vendor.
