mRNA-sequencing and Methyl-Bisulfite sequencing from submitted leaf tissue samples

Solicitation 1232SA26Q0964 (RFQ) seeks quotations from total small‑business set‑aside firms (NAICS 541380) to provide mRNA‑sequencing (6 G data) and Methyl‑Bisulfite DNA sequencing services on leaf‑tissue samples. Offerors must submit detailed, capability‑based technical proposals that fully address the attached Statement of Work, including sample receipt, RNA/DNA extraction, library preparation, quality‑control, sequencing, data analysis, and electronic delivery of final reports. Pricing must cover the line‑item quantities (610 RNA‑Seq extracts and 20 Bisulfite‑Seq extracts), include any quantity or prompt‑payment discounts, and be firm for 90 calendar days. The government will award to the lowest‑priced offer that is technically acceptable; if the lowest price fails technical or past‑performance criteria, the evaluation proceeds to the next lowest price. No discussions will be held, and any deviations or exceptions may render a proposal technically unacceptable. Questions are due by 5:00 PM CDT, 27 July 2026, to kerrie.hodges@usda.gov.
