NSDV Challenge Experiments in East Africa

Oregon State University intends to contract for the provision of NSDV challenge experiments in East Africa from International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) as a sole source because of the uniqueness (location, capability, specialization) of the services and the contractor being the single provider of the services. The supplier must meet minimum specifications including the ability to conduct infection experiments under appropriate biocontainment conditions in East Africa, access to fully naïve domestic sheep, and possession of the required NSDV strains. The facility must also have the expertise and equipment to maintain biosecurity, collect appropriate samples, and perform diagnostics including qPCR and antibody detection. An entity may appeal this determination in accordance with OSU Standard 03-010, Section 5.17 no later than the closing date indicated on the website. Appeals must be submitted to Procurement, Contracts and Materials Management at procurement@oregonstate.edu by October 1, 2025 at 4:00 PM PST.
