AI Contract Overview

The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center’s Department of Laboratory Medicine intends to award a sole source fixed-price purchase order to Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. for the Bio-Rad CFX Opus 96 Real-Time PCR System and associated reagents, to be delivered to Bethesda, Maryland. This procurement falls under simplified acquisition procedures as defined in FAR Part 13, allowing for non-competitive award because Bio-Rad is the only source reasonably available to fulfill the specific technical requirements necessary for ongoing research funded by the 2026 Research Award for Staff Clinicians. The equipment will be used to process patient samples in alignment with an approved research plan requiring institutional affiliation and technical continuity, justifying the absence of competitive bidding. The transaction is classified under Product Service Code 6515 and NAICS Code 339112, and the funding source is explicitly tied to internal NIH program funding. Although this is a notice of intent and not a formal solicitation, the government is inviting industry input prior to finalizing the award, with all comments due by July 29, 2026, directed to Kristin Nagashima at the NIH Office of Purchasing and Contracts. No formal quotations will be requested, and the decision to proceed without competition rests solely with the contracting officer under the provisions of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), which permits sole source awards below the simplified acquisition threshold when unique circumstances limit the availability of alternative suppliers. The purchase will be executed under contract number 26-007652, and the performance location is confirmed as the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.
