## Description

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Illumina, Inc for MiSeq System and support. MiSeq System is manufactured and distributed by Illumina. The MiSeq system fills a critical role for the sequencing core at CDC as it has proven itself capable of sequencing viral genomes and bacterial genomes for both virus discovery and bacterial meta genomics.

The MiSeq sequencing platform is required to work with the Illumina library preparation and sequencing reagents and tools. No other competitor instruments are compatible with Illumina reagents or CDCs established and refined workflows. This contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (SAP) and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1).
