Question 2

What is National Geospatial Technology Operations Center looking for?

Accepted Answer

The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) is seeking a contractor to provide library preparation and sequencing services for environmental DNA (eDNA) samples collected from marine environments as part of FY26 NOAA PMEL operations.  The selected contractor will perform library preparation involving indexing/barcoding, normalization, and quality control of PCR amplicon products derived from seawater eDNA filters, and will conduct sequencing of approximately 6,912 DNA libraries across six distinct metabarcoding loci accommodating up to 1,152 samples.

Question 3

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

Accepted Answer

Starbridge centralizes thousands of state, local, education, and university bid portals into one AI-powered feed.
