Agriculture and Agrifood Canada, Swift Current, SK has a requirement for the establishment of a Standing Offer for the delivery of whole genome genotyping on wheat samples.
Sole Source Justification (d) Only one supplier is capable of performing the work.
Diversity Arrays Technology Pty Ltd provides whole genome genotyping via their patented Wheat PstI(TaqI) v.3 hybridisation chip. The nature of this technology (Diversity Arrays Technology or DArT) allows for minimal input, low cost, high throughput, whole genome genotyping directly from genomic DNA.
The DArT service will provide whole genome genotyping on wheat lines from AAFC research populations. Genotyping will be accomplished via chip hybridisation technology whereby a fragment of a submitted wheat DNA sample hybridises to a point on the chip comprised of genomic representations of wheat (DArTmarkers that cover the genetic diversity of the species) if the DNA sample contains a sequence complimentary to the marker. The Wheat PstI(TaqI) v.3 chip developed by Diversity Arrays Technology Pty Ltd contains 7,000 markers which are analyzed in parallel creating a high throughput, efficient and cost effective way to obtain the whole genome dataset.
GCR Exemption (d) Only one supplier, person or firm is capable of performing the contract. Diversity Arrays Technology Pty Ltd is the only vendor that provides a genotyping service (DArT) whereby the customer can submit genomic DNA samples for testing.
DArT® detects INDELs and single base changes without the need for DNA sequence information, therefore generating random genetic information. The information is valuable for us to use in mapping genes for traits of interest. The process of generating the random genetic information is patented to Diversity Arrays Technology Pty Ltd and AAFC requires these services in order to obtain randomly generated DNA markers based on a clonally propagated, broad DNA representation to which a reduced representation of DNA from our lines is applied.

You are hereby notified that the government intends to negotiate with one firm only as identified above. Should you have any questions concerning this requirement, contact the contracting officer identified above.
An Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) allows departments and agencies to post a notice, for no less than fifteen (15) calendar days, indicating to the supplier community that it intends to award a good, service or construction contract to a pre-identified contractor. If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a Statement of Capabilities that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, the contracting authority may then proceed with the award. However, should a Statement of Capabilities be found to meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, then the contracting authority will proceed to a full tendering process.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available to provide the services/goods described herein, may submit a statement of capabilities in writing to the contact person identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate how the supplier meets the advertised requirements.
The PWGSC file number, the contracting officer's name and the closing date of the ACAN must appear on the outside of the envelope in block letters or, in the case of a facsimile transmission, on the covering page.
The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement.
Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
