This requirement is assigned a code of 561110 in the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and the size standard for such requirements is $7M. General Scope Congress has provided funding annually to the Indian Health Service (IHS) for the Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. The funds were distributed through non-competitive and competitive grants to IHS, tribal and urban health entities. Of these grants, there were competitive grants (called demonstration projects) in American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities which implement activities to prevent diabetes in high risk individuals (Diabetes Prevention or DP sites) and prevent cardiovascular disease in people who already have diabetes (Healthy Heart or HH sites). The IHS originally contracted services to provide technical assistance, development and maintenance of a communication network with the grantees, management and analyzing of data process and outcome measures, which resulted in establishment of The Coordinating Center. The Coordinating Center works under the guidance and leadership of the IHS Division of Diabetes Treatment and Prevention (DDTP) to oversee the day-to-day operations of the SDPI Initiative grant programs and provide technical assistance. It maintains a communications network with the grantees and DDTP, as well as continues to manage and analyze data processes and outcome measures to ensure that it is timely, accurate, and complete. IHS is seeking a Contractor to continue these technical and administrative supports to The Coordinating Center. Please see attached Performance Work Statement (PWS) for more details. Anticipated Period of Performance: The anticipated period of performance for this requirement includes one 12-month base period, with two 12-month options periods. Capability statement/information sought: The response to this Sources Sought Notice must demonstrate the company's technical understanding of the requirements and capability in a concise, logical manner and should not contain superfluous material not directly related to the PWS. Any organization responding to this notice should ensure that its response is complete and sufficiently detailed to allow the Government to determine the organization's capability to meet the requirement.

This synopsis is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, nor will the Government pay for information solicited.
