- Description
- The Surveillance Research Program within the Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, plans to negotiate with the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries, Inc. (NAACCR), Springfield, Illinois 62704, RFP No. N02-PC-35013-18, for a contract for five years to improve standards and technical aspects related to the collection, analysis and use of cancer incidence data from a variety of population-based registries. The resulting standard processes and procedures developed under this contract will improve the national capacity for collecting, analyzing, and measuring data comparability from multiple population-based cancer registries and their reporting sources, including socio-demographic data elements; advance and codify best practices for consolidating data per cancer case; provide empirical and analytical evidence for assessment of more refined criteria for measuring completeness; provide new resources for conducting distributed technical training, improve the efficiency of collecting and reporting cancer data on patients seen in multiple facilities; and initiate further development of more standard and efficient approaches to population-based central registry operations. Due to the unique role of the NAACCR and support by the public and private sector and their sponsoring member organizations (American Cancer Society, American College of Surgeons, American Joint Committee on Cancer, Canadian Association of Provincial Cancer Agencies, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Health Canada, National Cancer Institute, National Cancer Registrars Association, and Statistics Canada), they are the only organization that can perform this work. The statutory authority for this acquisition is 41 USC 253(c)(1) as set forth in FAR 6.302-1. Numbered Note 22 is included and reads as follows: The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within forty-five days (thirty days if award is issued under an existing basic ordering agreement) after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No collect calls will be accepted.
