The University of Missouri is seeking bids for Illumina sequencing consumables and library-preparation products for its sequencing systems. - Government buyer: University of Missouri, UM Procurement, Columbia, Missouri. - OEM: Illumina is the named manufacturer; the requested items are Illumina-branded reagents, kits, indexes, and controls. - Products and quantities: NovaSeq X Series 25B, 10B, and 5B reagent kits; MiSeq i100 Series 25M reagent kits; mRNA and DNA preparation kits; RNA and DNA/RNA index sets; 5-Base DNA Prep kits; and PhiX Control V3. All 28 line items, with quantities, are listed below. - Notable requirements: Reagents must work with the University’s Illumina sequencing systems. The requested kits cover runs from 100 to 1,000 cycles, include flow cells where specified, and support library preparation and sequencing control. Specific 25B 100- and 200-cycle lyo inserts are not compatible with the 300-cycle kit. Some DNA prep kits require separately purchased indexes, enrichment reagents, or probe panels. - Performance requirements in the solicitation include reversible-terminator sequencing-by-synthesis chemistry, high-accuracy reads (more than 75% of bases at Q30 or better for a 2x300 run), onboard cluster generation, and preparation in under 20 minutes. - Contract term: Two years from award, with five additional one-year renewal options. No separate services are listed. - Estimated value: Approximately $400,000–$900,000; the solicitation summary does not provide a stated contract value.
