Section C - Descriptions and Specifications

 

TITLE:  Reagentless Detection on a Semiconductor Microarray for the
Immunochemical and Genomic Identification of Biothreat Agents

 

C.1.0  Scope.  This work effort encompasses the continued development of a
biological and chemical agent point detector based on electrochemical detection
of agents on CMOS microarrays. .  The effort will continue to develop and test a
new generation of semiconductor-based microarrays that have improved electronic
capabilities in a smaller silicon footprint without significant loss in the
quantity of electrodes or their quality.  Efforts will focus on designing a
microarray(s) specifically for electrical and/or electrochemical detection by
redesigning the CMOS circuitry to improve the signal to noise ratio, reduce
microarray read time and integrate new functionalities on the chip. Efforts will
also focus on cost reduction by using a smaller silicon footprint and developing
new microarray packaging that facilitates electrical connectivity. The effort
will continue development and improvement of genomic, immunoassay and chemical 
assays on the chip.  The effort will also complete the final engineering
requirements for system integration and optimization.

 

C.1.1  Background.  In the Modernization Plan 2004, the JRO-CBRN recognized
serious shortcomings in current platforms for the point detection of BTAs and
chemical threat agents (CTAs) . Size, weight, ability to detect diverse agents,
reduced false alarm rates, accuracy, and sensitivity were identified as common
problems with current technologies. In response, the Defense Threat Reduction
Agency (DTRA) is emphasizing the optimization of sensor technologies with a
focused effort on multi-agent sensors for chemical and biological (CB) agents to
include non-traditional agents, emerging threat agents and toxic industrial
chemicals/materials. In addition, DTRA has a new nanotechnology initiative to
identify novel nanoscale approaches that can be applied to CB point detection
array analysis.

 

C.1.2  Objective.  To continue development of an automated biothreat agent (BTA)
detection system based upon the CombiMatrix complementary metal oxide
semiconductor (CMOS) microarray and electrochemical detection (ECD); to continue
the integration of serological and genomic assays for orthogonal testing; and to
explore new methods of detection that expand target identification, reduce
reagent burden, and improve assay time.

 

C.2.0   Applicable Documents.  None.

 

C.3.0 Requirements.

 

C.3.1 General.  The contractor, as an independent contractor and not as an agent
of the Government, shall furnish the necessary resources (except those

Section H - Special Contract Requirements

 

H.1  SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

 

H.1.1  This contract is unclassified and does not contain security requirements
or a Contract Security Classification Specification, DD Form 254.

 

H.1.2  If access to unclassified sensitive information (For Official Use Only —
FOUO) is authorized; contractor may access only the information related to the
subject matter of this contract.

 

H.1.3  Should the Government determine that the technology has developed to a
point where the information warrants protection under Executive Order 12958,
Classified National Security Information, a DD Form 254 and an approved
classification guide will be issued.

 

H.2 GOVERNMENT-CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIPS (52.0000-4048)

 

a)  The Government and the contractor understand and agree that the support
services to be delivered under this contract by the contractor are non-personal
services and the parties recognize and agree that no employer-employee
relationships exist or will exist under the contract between the Government and
the contractor and/or between the Government and the contractor’s employees.  It
is therefore, in the best interest of the Government to afford the parties a
full and complete understanding of their respective obligations.

 

b)  Contractor personnel under this contract shall not:

 

1)  Be placed in a position where they are appointed or employed by a Federal
Officer, or are under the supervision, direction, or evaluation of a Federal
Officer, military or civilian.

2)  Be placed in a staff or policy making position

3)  Be placed in a position of command, supervision, direction, or evaluation
over DA military or civilian personnel or personnel of other contractors or
become a part of a Government organization.

 

c)  Employee Relationships:

 

1)  The services to be performed under this contract does not require the
contractor or its employees to exercise personal judgment and discretion on
behalf of the Government, but rather the contractor’s employees will act and
exercise personal judgment and direction on behalf of the contractor.

 

2)  Rules, regulations, directions, and requirements that are issued by command
authorities under their responsibility for good order, administration, and
security are applicable to all personnel who enter a Government installation. 
This is not to be construed or interpreted to establish any degree of Government
control, which is inconsistent with a non-personal services contract.

 

3)  The contractor will not be paid for performance of personal services. 
Therefore, in the event the contractor (or its employee) is directed by a
Government employee to perform tasks that the contractor believes are personal
services the contractor should take no action until it has contacted the
Procuring Contracting Officer to determine the appropriate course of action.

 

H.3  FOREIGN NATIONALS

 

No foreign national shall work on this contract without acquiring approval from
the Contracting Officer prior to initiating work under this contract.  When
requesting approval, furnish full name, date of birth, place of birth,
citizenship, registration number, type of visa, port of entry, and type of
position in which employee will be utilized.  Previously approved foreign
nationals must be reapproved if the nature of their work under this contract
differs from that performed under the prior year’s contract.  The Contractor
shall submit a copy of the work visa or green card

 

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

with an abbreviated Curriculum Vitae and a justification to the Contract
Specialist for review by the Security Office for approval.

 

H.4  AUTHORITY TO CHANGE OR MODIFY THE CONTRACT:

 

a)  The contractor is hereby notified that no government personnel other than an
authorized Contracting Officer can change or modify the contract or authorize
any action that obligates the government.  If a COR or Alternate COR (ACOR) is
appointed for this contract, his/her authority is limited to the specific duties
set forth in the letter of appointment.  The COR/ACOR is not authorized to make
any commitments or changes that affect price.

 

b)  If the contractor accepts any such commitment from the government personnel
other than an authorized Contracting Officer, it shall be at their own risk and
expense.  Such actions do not bind the Government contractually and do not
constitute a change under FAR 52.243-1 Alt V.  The contractor shall not be
entitled to an equitable adjustment of the contract amount or delivery schedule
unless an authorized Contracting Officer directs changes or modifications.

 

The contractor shall be under no obligation to comply with any direction or
change that will result in a contract modification unless an authorized
contracting Officer issues it.  The contractor shall direct any questions
concerning the authority of government to the Procuring Contracting Officer.

 

H.5  LIMITATION OF COSTS

 

In accordance with the clause FAR 52.232-20 Limitation of Cost April 1984,
incorporated into this contract, the notice required thereby shall be provided
to the designated Procuring Contracting Officer by CERTIFIED MAIL return receipt
requested.  Failure to comply with the above notice requirement imposes the risk
of continued performance on the contract without reimbursement to the contractor
for cost incurred over and above the estimated cost or allotted amount stated in
the contract.

 

H.6  NOTICE OF INCORPORATION OF REPS AND CERTS (52.0000-4147)

 

The contractor’s reps and certs as completed online (https://orca.bpn.gov) are
hereby incorporated in and form a part of the resultant contract as though
furnished in full text therewith.
