BACKGROUND: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is an agency of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). NHTSA's mission is to save lives, prevent injuries and reduce traffic-related health care and other economic costs. The agency develops, promotes and implements effective educational, engineering and enforcement programs with the goal of ending preventable tragedies and reducing economic costs associated with vehicle use and highway travel. The American public is aging with large numbers of the baby boomer generation entering their mid-fifties to mid-sixties and beyond. And while people are living longer in the U.S., this does not necessarily equate to healthy living and quality of life. One identified aspect of quality of life is independent living and being able to get to destinations of choice whether by motorized vehicle, by foot or other means (by bicycle, transit, etc). While driving is the most common form of transportation for adults, driving is not always the safest option as adult's progress through the aging process-not necessarily correlated to age, but correlated to multiple emotional, physical or cognitive factors. Increased frailty, decreased range of motion, disease complications, increased needs for medication and their interactions, all have a potential to impact safe driving or chances of severe injury or fatality if crashes do occur. The issue of older driver safety continues to demand involvement from health care providers, family members and friends to prepare drivers even before a driver's license has to be taken away. Intervention begins with knowledge: knowledge of resources; knowledge of the impact of health and aging on driving ability, impact of medications and alcohol on driving, and impact of even upcoming technologies on independent mobility (driving and walking). Now more than ever, health care professionals are a vital link to the safety of their aging clientele. OBJECTIVE: The objective is to develop a complete credited healthcare professional older driver course to increase the number of health care professionals participating in a variety of educational opportunities, earning CME's or CE credit while teaching them about older driver safety. NHTSA wishes to development of content and educational opportunities for public learning free of charge, while allowing a charge for those wishing to obtain the service of eligibility and receipt for CME/CE through post tests and tracking of certification credits. Capabilities: The corporate capability statement must address the capabilities necessary to accomplish the scope outlined above as well as the additional tasks listed in the attached draft SOW. Format of Corporate Capabilities Statement: Any interested qualified Small Business (SB), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), 8(a) Certified SDB, HUBZone SB, SDVOSB, or WOSB concerns should submit their Corporate Capability Statement, which demonstrates the firm's ability and past experience in no more than 10 pages to perform the key requirements described above to the identified NHTSA point of contact listed herein. Any proprietary information should be marked as such. All respondents are asked to certify the type and size of their business organization is in-line with the requirements of this Sources Sought Notice, and must be received no later than 10 calendar days from the date of publication of this notice.
