Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Custom Commercial Aptamer Procurement

Solicitation # PANAPG-26-P-0000-051608

The U.S. Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground Edgewood Division intends to award a sole source, firm fixed price contract to Aptagen LLC for the custom synthesis, purification, quality control, and delivery of DNA, RNA, and peptide aptamers. These materials are critical for diagnostic assay development, biosensor research, and chemical and biological defense platforms supporting the DEVCOM Chemical Biological Center. To meet strict technical requirements, the aptamers must undergo denaturing Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis purification, as standard commercial HPLC or cartridge methods are deemed unacceptable. The vendor is required to provide double tier empirical quality control for every delivery using ElectroSpray Ionization Mass Spectrometry and 10 percent Urea Gel dPAGE analysis. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations, but the government will review responses submitted to the designated contracting officials by September 1, 2026.
