Sources must have the capability to implement traditional product marketing methods, but especially in face-to-face and one-on-one site visits with the intent of changing behavior in clinical practice. The contractor must demonstrate experience in health care marketing. The contractor shall have the ability to reach out to health care providers by personal contacts. The contractor shall make one-on-one contacts with specified target audiences and follow-up site visits to highlight AHRQ's products, thereby influencing the adoption of improved patient safety practices.
