About this opportunity

This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was for an optofluidic platform from Berkeley Lights to support antibody discovery efforts against COVID-19. Due to the urgent need to identify monoclonal antibodies for treatment and the unique capabilities of Berkeley Lights' Beacon system for high-throughput single-cell screening not available from other sources, a firm-fixed price contract of unknown value was awarded on a sole source basis to Berkeley Lights on March 24, 2020 for a period of performance estimated from March 25 to September 24, 2020 to provide their research-only Beacon platform and allow screening of thousands of cells daily to rapidly identify antibody-secreting cells.
