- This is a notice of intent, not a request for a quotation. A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institute of Health, Clinical Center (CC) intends to award a Firm-Fixed price purchase order to The College of American Pathologists (Large Business) Winnetka, IL 60093-2719 on a sole source basis to procure a contract for the inspection, accreditation and participation in the CAP proficiency testing program under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments License' 88. The College of American Pathologists has been granted deeming authority from The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services as well as the Joint Commission to meet state certification requirements.

This accreditation program is required to operate the Department of Laboratory Medicine and is therefore essential to patient care.
