- Description
- This is a notice of intent, not a request for a proposal. A solicitation document will not be issued and proposals will not be requested. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), Office of Acquisitions, Station Support/Simplified Acquisitions Branch, on behalf of the National Institute on Aging (NIA), intends to negotiate and award a contract on a noncompetitive basis to Rose Li & Associates Inc., 9501 Wadsworth Drive, Bethesda, MD, 20817-2408, to obtain Science Management and Research Administration Support services for the Division of Behavioral and Social Research (BSR) at the National Institute on Aging (NIA) in Bethesda, Maryland. The period of performance is seven months. The National Institute on Aging (NIA) has a requirement for Science Management and Research Administration Support services for the Division of Behavioral and Social Research (BSR). NIA BSR requires these services in order for the contractor to continue providing management support of the quadrennial review by the National Advisory Council on Aging (NACA) and to continue organizing the Common Fund (CF) Science of Behavior Change (SOBC) meeting on Harnessing Neuroplasticity for Behavior Change scheduled for September 2013. In preparation for the NACA Review and the CF SOBC meeting, Rose Li & Associates has already completed the required portfolio analysis, scheduling of conferences, collection of confidentiality agreements, established reimbursement procedures, and has reserved conference meeting room space and lodging with a third party vendor. Additionally, Rose Li & Associates has participated in preparation meetings, workgroup meetings, and created a participant reservation website. In order for the Government to maintain continuity of these services until both conferences have be completed and final reporting has been submitted to the NIA BSR, only Rose Li & Associates will be able to complete the required data capture, data analysis, and reservation commitments already established with third party vendors. There is no other vendor who can complete the work that has already been started by Rose Li & Associates. This acquisition is being conducted using policies unique to the acquisition of commercial items prescribed in FAR Part 12, in conjunction with the policies and procedures for solicitation, evaluation, and award prescribed in Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and is exempt from the competition requirements of Part 6. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this synopsis. The determination by the Government not to compete the proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Comments to this announcement, referencing this synopsis number, may be submitted to the NIDA SS/SA Branch, prior to the closing date specified in this announcement, electronically to the attention of John Flannery, at flanneryje@mail.nih.gov.
