- The Food and Drug Administration intends to award a firm fixed price hourly contract to Kenya Craven, Inc. of Gaithersburg, MD. This is NOT a request for competitive quotes. The Purchase Order will be made on a sole source basis in accordance with FAR Part 13 - Simplified Acquisition Procedures and 13.501(A) - Sole source acquisitions for the following, full-time, services to be performed at 7519 Standish Place, Rockville, MD 20855: technical review of documents exclusive to the Office of Surveillance and Compliance (OSC), requiring a knowledge and familiarity with the work products, terminology, significance, and purpose of these documents. The vendor is also trained in the logging in and responding to requests for medically necessary personal imports, importation of medically necessary animal drug products involving products that are not approved or legal within the United States but are needed for the life and health of certain individual patients. Input critical data into the Tissue Residue Information Management System Database (TRIMS) which is used by Compliance to evaluate the effectiveness of inspectional and educational efforts to control illegal resides in edible animal tissue; and assisting with Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) data projects such as extracting information on BSE feed ban inspections for media inquires, reports to Congress and GAO, and preparing travel orders for personnel in the Division of Compliance with no lead time. The vendor has worked extensively in these areas and thus possesses an understanding of the procedures, problems and timeliness aspect to these projects. Having the same vendor continue to do this work will ensure that critical work is not interrupted and is completed in a manner that furthers the mission of FDA.
