AI Contract Overview

The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center intends to award a sole-source contract to Mission Bio for the procurement of Tapestri Single-Cell DNA + Protein Reagent Kit v3 and Tapestri® Single-Cell DNA Cartridge Kit v3 under FAR 6.302-1, citing the unique technical capabilities of Mission Bio’s platform as the only solution capable of enabling simultaneous single-cell genotyping and phenotyping required for CAR-T cell manufacturing and clinical lot release within the Center for Cellular Engineering. The acquisition, valued at $21,380, is justified due to the proprietary nature of the Tapestri system, which is incompatible with any other available technology and is essential for advancing gene therapy and immunotherapy research through high-resolution multi-omics analysis. The period of performance spans from May 28, 2026, to November 27, 2026, with deliveries scheduled for overnight shipment Monday through Thursday to the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, where all inspections and acceptances will occur upon receipt. Reagents must maintain a minimum shelf life of three months for opened kits and six months for library kits, with full responsibility for damages, defects, or non-compliance resting with the vendor, who must also provide complimentary technical support. Payment will be issued per delivered item, contingent on successful acceptance, and the contract operates under simplified acquisition procedures as a firm-fixed price arrangement authorized by FAR 13.106-1 and FAR 13.501. A Notice of Intent has been issued to allow other potential vendors to submit capability statements by May 8, 2026, via email with the specified subject line, though the government retains full discretion to proceed without competition based on the uniqueness of the requirement and the absence of adequate alternatives in the market.

This is a Notice of Intent, not a request for proposal.  The National Institute of Health, Clinical Center (NIH-CC) intends to negotiate on an other than full and open competition basis with the following vendor: Mission Bio.


Acquisition Description:


The Center for Cellular Engineering (CCE) is responsible for the manufacture of human cells and tissue-based products utilized in phase I/II clinical protocols for transplantation, adoptive immunotherapy and gene therapy conducted in the Clinical Center at the NIH. Cell processing procedures are tailored to each of the 30 or more different patient-care clinical research protocols supported, including CAR-T cells and iPSCs. Also, regarding Institute research support it:  1)Develops biologics collection and manufacturing processes to support clinical trials, 2) Collects, manufactures and distribute blood components for in vitro research use, 3) Collaboration in the design, planning, execution and data analysis of clinical studies, 4) Collects and manufactures specialized cellular products to support clinical trials and, 5) Develops and evaluate assays for clinical application and biologics safety testing and cellular characterization.


We have been starting to investigate differential gene expression and protein expression simultaneously at single cell level by facilitating the reaction on BD Rhapsody single cell analysis system, including Rhapsody scanner and Rhapsody express that we just adopted recently from BD biosciences, as well as single cell genotyping and phenotyping by using Tapestri platform from Mission Bio, to help us  develop  clinical lot release more efficiency to streamline workflow of CAR T cells manufacturing at CCE and clinical research as well. 


Thus, we are here requesting the purchase of reagent kits from Mission Bio for their Tapestri platform.


The statutory authority for this sole source requirement is 41 U.S.C. 253(c) (1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 only one responsible source and no other supply of service will satisfy agency requirements.
