- Description
- This notice is provided in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.201(b)(1)(ii). The Government has awarded a sole-source modification to contract # HHSN272201400027C, modification 07. The contract modification is for additional level of effort, to add direct labor hours to option period 2. The objective of this award is to increase the level of effort available to continue development of and support for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) related data and computational services. Specifically, this modification will extend the PATRIC infrastructure to achieve the following aims: A. Advancing Antimicrobial Resistance Annotation at the DNA-level 1. Gather and curate DNA sequence level variants associated with AMR. 2. Build a computational framework for projecting DNA sequence level variants. 3. Project DNA sequence level variants. B. Identifying, Predicting and Annotating Mobile Genetic Elements 1. Build a database of mobile genetic elements. 2. Identify and predict mobile elements. 3. Refine the prediction workflow and distribution. C. Identifying AMR Features and Genomes in Complex Microbial Communities 1. Create search infrastructure for mining metagenomic data. 2. Explore methods for targeted assembly. 3. Construct an environmental AMR database. 4. Make environmental AMR sequences available in PATRIC tools. 5. Develop metagenomic AMR analysis services. D. AMR Data and Data Models 1. Enhanced support for antibiotics and AMR metadata. 2. Extend Solr schema to support AMR features 3. Construct AMR variant protein families. E. New Visualizations and User Facing Tools and Services 1. Contextual representation of AMR features. 2. AMR panel data summaries and viewer. 3. Extended genome browser to display DNA variants and mobile elements. 4. Enhanced protein family sorter. 5. Enhanced MSA viewer. 6. Enhanced phylogenetic tree viewer. This contract modification was awarded pursuant to FAR Subpart 6.3, "Other than Full and Open Competition."
