CEFAS22-11 Next Generation Sequencing Services Framework

To help meet increasing needs, Cefas have a requirement to establish a new framework agreement for the provision of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) services to include the approaches detailed below, and any proposed solution/awarded Provider must be able to fulfil the following requirements (as a minimum): 1. The service provided must include the receipt of sample(s) from Cefas, Library Preparation, Quality Control and sequencing, and delivery of data back to Cefas. 2. The service provided must be able to offer, depending on the requirements of the project, a range of NGS technical options including but not restricted to high throughput short and long read sequencing (including Illumina…

Depending on the requirements of the project, some processing and initial analyses of the raw data may be requested. Collaborative, jointly-authored projects will also be undertaken, with input from both parties.
