FACSLyric Flow Cytometry System

Solicitation # 75N98026Q00904

The National Cancer Institute, under the National Institutes of Health, intends to award a sole source contract to Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD) for the procurement of the BD FACSLyric Flow Cytometry System, citing FAR 6.302-1 due to the absence of any other responsible source capable of meeting the agency’s specific requirements. The FACSLyric system is an integrated platform comprising proprietary hardware, firmware, software, calibration protocols, and factory-supported installation and training that are exclusively manufactured and maintained by BD Biosciences. No third-party vendor can replicate or provide equivalent components, as the system’s functionality, data acquisition workflows, and quality control procedures are tightly coupled with BD’s proprietary software, FACSuite, and its associated automation and reagent ecosystem. Substituting equipment from another manufacturer would necessitate complete redevelopment of laboratory processes, revalidation of assays, and retraining of personnel, resulting in significant delays, increased costs, and unacceptable technical risk. All capability statements from potential vendors, including small businesses and other designated small business categories, may be submitted via email to haunp@mail.nih.gov no later than 9:00 a.m. EDT on August 7, 2026, solely to assess whether competitive procurement is feasible. However, the government has indicated that it anticipates awarding the contract approximately five calendar days after the response deadline unless a viable alternative is identified. The solicitation number is 75N98026Q00904, the NAICS code is 334516, and the place of performance is Bethesda, Maryland. The system will be installed and supported at the National Cancer Institute’s facility, and all warranty, technical support, and software updates are contingent upon BD’s exclusive authorization and supply.
