Standard Biotools Reagents and Service

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is seeking to procure Standard BioTools reagents and services for their Genomic Surveillance Program. The program requires the use of the Standard BioTools X9 High-Throughput Genomics System, which is the only unit on the market capable of metagenomics testing directly on raw stool specimens. The sole source justification is based on the uniqueness of the product and the vendor's exclusive experience and certifications. The project involves the procurement of two replacement X9 units, a five-year service agreement, and reagents. The estimated dollar amount for the project is $2.3M over five years. * The project requires the use of the Standard BioTools X9 High-Throughput Genomics System. * The system is the only unit on the market capable of metagenomics testing directly on raw stool specimens. * The vendor, Standard BioTools, has exclusive experience and certifications. * The project involves the procurement of two replacement X9 units, a five-year service agreement, and reagents. * The estimated dollar amount for the project is $2.3M over five years.
