Eastern Standard Time. Questions are due July 23. Amendment 00001, issued July 24, extended the original proposal deadline and provided Q&A clarifications; offerors must acknowledge receipt of the amendment with their submission.
Place of performance is CDC headquarters at 1600 Clifton Road, Building 17, Atlanta, Georgia.

The contractor must design and produce 4,000 lateral flow strips that detect amplified HIV DNA using gold-conjugated antibodies and biotin-conjugated nucleic acids produced through loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP).

Strips must achieve specified sensitivity and specificity targets within 30–40 minutes of direct exposure to LAMP reactions with exceedingly low false positive rates. Required shelf-life is at least one year at refrigeration and three months at room temperature, subject to accelerated stability testing.
Period of performance is August 15, 2026 through January 15, 2027.
