01R11-231050-B Sequencing Services - RFSA

This appears to be an open Request for a Supply Arrangement (RFSA) for sequencing and related laboratory services for Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC). The arrangement may allow qualified suppliers to receive as-and-when-requested work involving plant, animal, microbial, soil, and other samples. Potentially relevant services include sample receipt, library construction and quality control, DNA and RNA sequencing, next-generation and high-throughput sequencing, genomics, shotgun metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, data analysis and recording, and sample storage or disposal. The notice is listed as open and is intended to remain available until December 31, 2029. The supplied record shows a closing time of 4:00 p.m., while the description refers to 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, so this deadline should be confirmed in the official tender notice. The supply arrangement period is described as running from issuance until March 31, 2030. New suppliers may submit arrangements during the continuous qualification period. Existing suppliers that already have a supply arrangement do not need to submit a new one. Submissions must be made through Canada Buys using SAP Ariba; submissions through other methods will not be accepted. The opportunity is associated with PSPC and is located in Canada, with Gatineau, Quebec shown in the listing. This may be relevant to Canadian laboratories, genomics providers, biotechnology firms, and organizations able to meet the specified technical, quality-control, data-handling, and sample-management requirements. The listing alone does not confirm eligibility or guarantee future work. Review the complete official notice and all SAP Ariba documents carefully, including qualification requirements, security or accreditation requirements, pricing and ordering procedures, and the official closing date before submitting an arrangement: https://discovery.ariba.com/rfx/23143616?extsite=Mj MxNDM2MTZfQU4wMTQ4NDA1MDk5Mg==
