The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), Office of Acquisitions (OA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), for the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), NIH Chemical Genomics Center (NCGC) intend to award a single, fixed priced purchase order on a noncompetitive (sole source) basis to Accelrys, 10188 Telesis Court, Suite 100, San Diego, California 92121 to purchase DiscoveryStudio software license for the period of (1) one year.

The total estimated amount of this contract is NOT expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold of $100,000. Only one responsible source and no other supplier or service will satisfy requirements. The reference number for this announcement is NHLBI-PB-(HG)-2010-90-DLM.

The DiscoveryStudio software contains ADMET Discriptors, QSAR, Pharmacophore Modeling and Structure-Based Design. The Discovery Studio contains a main software component called “Catalyst”, which is a pharmacophore generation and searching software.
