Immunophenotyping and Flow Cytometric Analysis of Cellular Populations in Translational Research Studies 75N98026Q00589
Summary
AI-generated · Jun 11, 2026Immunophenotyping and flow cytometric analysis of cellular populations are needed to support translational research projects in the NIH intramural program. To ensure reliable, timely experimentation, the laboratory requires access to a flow cytometry system within the facility to perform sample acquisition and analysis in line with ongoing experimental workflows, replacing or supplementing the current shared-resource setup used by multiple research groups.
This acquisition is a non-competitive, brand-name action targeted to BD Biosciences to provide the specified flow cytometry instrumentation and related support under simplified acquisition procedures, with an anticipated value not to exceed $350,000. Respondents may identify capability, but proposals must demonstrate bona fide capacity to fulfill the requirement; submissions should include a technical proposal, a cost/price proposal, period of performance, UEI, TIN, and size certification, and proof of SAM registration. The government reserves sole discretion to determine whether to proceed on a non-competitive basis based on responses.

GENERAL INFORMATION Title: Immunophenotyping and Flow Cytometric Analysis of Cellular Populations in Translational Research Studies Background Information: The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases conducts intramural research that requires immunophenotyping and analysis of cellular populations using flow cytometry. These activities are performed across multiple projects within the laboratory and require reliable access to instrumentation capable of supporting routine and time-sensitive experimental workflows. Current laboratory operations utilize shared flow cytometry resources for sample acquisition and analysis. These systems support a broad user base and are scheduled across multiple research groups. To support ongoing laboratory activities, access to a flow cytometry system within the laboratory is required to perform sample acquisition and analysis in alignment with experimental workflows.. CLOSING STATEMENT This synopsis is not a request for competitive proposals. However, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this notice. Responses to this notice shall contain sufficient information to establish the interested parties' bona-fide capabilities for fulfilling the requirement and include a technical proposal, a cost-price proposal, the period of performance, the Unique Entity ID (UEI), the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and the certification of business size. All offerors must have an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) www.sam.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The information received will normally be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to proceed on a non-competitive basis or to conduct a competitive procurement. All responses must be received by June 22, 2026 at 9:00 AM Eastern time and must reference solicitation number 75N98026Q00589.
