These contracts provide patent-related services including patent searches, patent prosecution, infringement and interference services and licensing consultation to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Office of Technology Transfer (OTT). The extension for the current contracts will prevent a lapse in service during negotitation and award of multiple contracts under RFP# 263-2006-P(GM)-0247 for Patent Legal Services currently posted on www.fbo.gov. This action is under the authority 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as set forth in FAR 6.302-1 as it is impracticable to seek competition for the four month period while completing negotiations under RFP #263-2006-P(GM)-0247. Interruption of service would result in significant harm to the U.S. Government in the loss of intellectual property rights in the United States and foreign countries in connection with multiple patent cases. Questions regarding this notice may be addressed to Erin Flynn, Contract Specialist at 301-402-8214 or via email at flynne1@od.nih.gov.
