AHBPCE Statistics Services Performance Work Statement Contract Title: VA Airborne Hazards and Burn Pits Center of Excellence (VA AHBPCE) Statistics Services Period of Performance: The Government anticipates an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract between the VA Airborne Hazards and Burn Pits Center of Excellence and the University of Washington School of Medicine, Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education. The period of performance shall be a base year, plus three one-year option periods. Background: Health Services Research and Development (HSR&D) Center of Innovation has an ongoing mission to strengthen academic collaboration between VA and University of Washington School of Medicine. This relationship is vital to the goals set forth in the Center of Excellence Strategic Plan that will ultimately improve the health care and outcomes for the Veteran population. Scope: Subpart 37.2 of Title 48, CFR provides policies and procedures for acquiring services by contract and regulating these contracts with individuals and organizations for service. The purpose of this service agreement is for VA investigators to continue to support the training activities at the University of Washington in exchange for specific tasks and deliverables on multiple medical and health services research and operations projects. Tasks and deliverables will range and depend on specific projects but may include conducting literature reviews, participating in designing/developing data collection tools, coding and analyzing qualitative and quantitative data, managing database maintenance, tracking study outcomes, assisting with administrative approval processes, and participating in dissemination of study findings, including writing reports, manuscripts and/or summaries of findings for varying stakeholders. The overall purpose of these projects is to implement, sustain and share evidence-based care models and improve outcomes in Veterans and settings in which they receive care. In addition, there will be general support on research and operations projects to Dr. XXXX and Dr. XXXXX, Co-Directors of the VA AHBPCE. There are inadequate internal staffing resources within AHBPCE that can be directed toward multiple projects for brief time periods with the required education and skill set. Collaboration with the University of Washington School of Medicine, Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education provides temporary support in a timely manner, enables us to provide continuity for our research investigators and their studies, and allows the Center to meet the partnering goals with our academic affiliate.
