Pre-Solicitation Notice for notice of intent to award a sole source contract. This is not a solicitation. The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to complete a sole source award for the Cytex Aurora Laser Flow Cytometer System with Government Scientific Sources, Inc., 12351 Sunrise Valley Dr, Reston, VA 20191 for the VA Palo Alto Health Care System, Research and Development office, located 3801 Miranda Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304. The Flow Cytometer System must assess over 30 different parameters per cell to enable VA researchers to use a wide array of new fluorochrome combinations. This system is equipped with five lasers (355nm, 405nm, 488nm, 561nm, and 640nm), three scatter channel detectors, and 64 fluorescence channel detectors spanning the light spectral range of 365nm to 829nm. The Cytex Aurora Laser Flow Cytometer System also comes with the automated sample loader, basic start-up 2 day on site training and a one-year warranty. Government Scientific Sources Inc. is the only SB authorized distributer for the OEM Cytek Biosciences Inc. available in the USA for the Cytex Aurora Laser Flow Cytometer System. Since the intent is to procure this on a sole source basis, no solicitation will be posted to FedBizOps (FBO).

AJ12--Development/Production - Kidney GEC-Specific AAV Vector
Solicitation # 36C24E27Q0009
The Department of Veterans Affairs is issuing a Sources Sought notice to identify capable vendors for the development and production of a kidney glomerular endothelial cell specific adeno-associated virus AAV vector. This project, funded by a VA ORD Merit award, aims to create a homing peptide enabled vector platform to target the glomerular endothelium to treat kidney injury and disease while reducing off target transduction. The scope of work is divided into three primary tasks: the engineering and incorporation of targeting peptides into the AAV capsid, testing vector binding and internalization in kidney tissue slices, and evaluating the specificity and efficiency of the modified vector through bioluminescence imaging and in vivo biodistribution studies. Qualified contractors must possess extensive onsite resources, including BSL 2 laboratories, specialized DNA and RNA facilities, and advanced instrumentation such as the Agilent Fragment Analyzer and various qPCR platforms. Vendors must demonstrate proven success in animal and human cell vector delivery and maintain full compliance with AAALAC and FELASA health standards. The government requires quarterly reporting, weekly videoconferences, and biannual face to face meetings. All generated data will be subject to Government Purpose Rights, and contractors must adhere to strict federal records management and information security protocols. Interested parties must submit a capability statement, relevant literature, and socio economic status details under NAICS 541714 by November 4, 2026.
