- Correction to RFP Invitation Letter to reflect the correct due date of March 21, 2013. This modification is to correct the RFP Letter to properly reflect the due date of March 21, 2013 listed in the solicitation (See attached). The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Department of Health and Human Services contemplates awarding a one year cost reimbursement contract with four (4) option years. This is a full and open procurement, the NAICS code is 541690, and is a request for proposals. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) is interested in highly experienced organizations able to maintain the National Laboratory Certification program. The National Laboratory Certification Program (NLCP) is the scientific and forensic laboratory certification program specified in the Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Programs published in the Federal Register (73 FR71858) on November 28, 2010. The NLCP ensures those drugs testing results reported by laboratories for Federal agencies and for industries regulated by the Department of Transportation and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission are scientifically and legally supportable. There are 35 certified laboratories currently participating in the NLCP. This contract will provide the technical evaluations and reports CSAP/SAMHSA requires to ensure complete oversight of the NLCP. The contractor will be required to prepare performance testing samples, technical evaluations of the results on the performance testing samples, maintain a semi-annual laboratory inspection program, prepare technical reports, and conduct various administrative tasks. In addition, the contractor will develop and present inspector training, develop special reports, and conduct special projects related to testing biological specimens such as oral fluid, sweat, and hair for work place drug testing. The NLCP is a cost recovery program. The contractor collects various fees from participants to offset the costs associated with applying and maintaining certification. The estimated date for issuance of this RFP is February 8, 2013 with proposal responses due March 8, 2013. This solicitation may be obtained in any of three ways; by mail; picked up in person at 1 Choke Cherry Road, Room 7-1051, Rockville, MD 20852; or FedBizOpps. If you have a continuing interest in the RFP, notify the individual identified below that you wish copies of amendments to the RFP (if any) sent to you. Requests for copies of the RFP must be made in writing. Requests will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis until the supply is exhausted; however, there is no assurance that copies requested after the twentieth day will reach the requestor before the due date for receipt of responses. Requests shall be forwarded to the attention of Tracy Davidson, Contract Specialist, Division of Contracts Management, OFR, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, DHHS, 1 Choke Cherry Road, Room 7-1063, Rockville, Maryland 20857.
