- Description
- The Clinical Trials Core (CTC), Vaccine Research Center (VRC), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health (NIH) conducts Phase I trials of candidate HIV vaccines and other vaccines developed by the VRC. CTC clinical research staff participates in various activities such as recruitment, screening, interviewing and enrolling vaccine volunteers into trials, follow up visits, and data management. In addition, the Clinical Trials Core participates in community education on HIV prevention, recruitment of healthy adults into clinical trials, study design and analysis, and maintenance of regulatory standards. The VRC wishes to obtain services provided in a Mobile Clinic to enhance the VRC?s ability to reach its intended audience of potential research study participants in the specific areas of recruitment, enrollment, advertising, provision of services, volunteer retainment, and follow up. The NIAID Acquisitions and Operations Branch (AMOB) has a requirement to furnish, outfit, maintain, house, and operate a vehicle for use by the VRC as a Mobile Clinic. The Mobile Clinic will be used for recruitment, screening, protocol visits, education, counseling, follow-up, and outreach programs for clinical trial volunteers. The Mobile Clinic will be staffed by Government personnel. All maintenance and operation of the vehicle will be provided by the contractor to include a driver, maintenance, housing, parking, licensing, insurance, and other operational requirements. It is expected that the vehicle will initially be used 3 days per week for approximately 6 hours per day. The vehicle will also be used for special events related to the Mobile Clinic?s mission. The NIAID anticipates a one-year contract with four (4) one-year options. This is not a Request for Proposals. The intention of this announcement is to notify potential offerors that the Request for Proposals will be available for download on or about April 23, 2007 from www.fedbizopps.gov.
