Notice Title
Whole Genome Sequencing Services for E.coli Genomes
Notice Description
Food Standards Scotland requires a Contractor to provide Whole Genome Sequencing services for E.coli genomes and other bacterial samples
Lot Information
Lot 1
Food Standards Scotland (FSS) requires a Contractor to provide Whole Genome Sequencing of E. coli genomes gathered from samples across Scotland with minimum 30X Illumina (100-250nt min) coverage. The sequenced genomes will be used as part of the Work Stream 1 PATHSAFE programme. FSS requires a minimum of 2500 samples to be sequenced during the Initial Contract Period, though actual volumes may be much higher, with current estimates for 3000 samples to be sequenced by the Contractor by the end of October 2023. Samples will be provided to the Contractor in multiple batches of samples rather than a single large order. There may also be a requirement for Whole Genome Sequencing of other bacterial species.
Renewal: The Contract Period may be extended up to a maximum of 36 months after the initial period, at the sole discretion of FSS
