- Description
- The Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) conducts Navy Medicine Research and includes subject areas such as: (1) combat casualty care research, including traumatic brain injury, posttraumatic stress disorder, wounds from improvised explosive devices, etc.; (2) non-communicable disease research, including cancer research; (3) infectious disease research, including respiratory or enteric disease research; and (4) chemical and biological defense research, including chemical and biological defense equipment and medical countermeasures. NHRC performs both intramural and extramural research, the latter meaning that the work must be outsourced or contracted out to industry or academia performers. Therefore, NHRC is in need of Research Acquisition Specialist (RAS) contractor personnel who understand the aforementioned subject areas significantly enough to act on the relevant regulations and statutes but can also translate the requirements of these subject areas into meaningful acquisition documents that a Contracting Officer can execute on. Of particular concern is that the RAS is knowledgeable of, experienced with, and can successfully act on regulations, statutes, and protocols such as those relevant to the FDA clinical trial process, which may include human use and/or animal use. The RAS must be able to develop and administer acquisition documents containing human-use requirements. A contract action that involves human-use research does require assurance certification by the contractor performer. A contract action that involves animal use does require assurance and accreditation by the contractor performer. There are many more regulations, statutes, and protocols within the medicine research sector that the RAS must be able to comprehend sufficiently enough to assure that all necessary provisions are included in the acquisition documents and that contract administration is of sufficient caliber to assure that these medical research regulations, statutes, and protocols are being adhered to by the contractor performer. Such services are non-personal in nature and do not include inherently Governmental duties. The Government will set aside the entire requirement for small business concerns. The applicable NAICS code is 541611 Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services. ($15M) The Government intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) on or about 20 August 2015. Proposals will be due 14 calendar days following the release of the RFP. The Government will only consider proposals offered from responsible small businesses. The Government intends to award no more than one firm fixed price, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract with a term of one 24 month base ordering period using the procedures of FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items.
