Description
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) plans to solicit proposals to continue a data archive of drug abuse and drug abuse and HIV research data, primarily archiving social science and behavioral data, though other data could be included. Offerors shall demonstrate the required capabilities and in-depth knowledge in the areas listed below: 1. Recruiting drug abuse or drug abuse and HIV social science and/or transdisciplinary researchers to deposit their data by actively working with the drug abuse and HIV research field; 2. Providing technical assistance and, with Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) approval, support to investigators either with already collected drug abuse and HIV datasets to assist in preparing their data for archiving; 3. Working to ensure that deposited data get maximum use, in part by devising and implementing strategies to ensure the drug abuse and HIV research fields are aware of the special topic archive and of what datasets are available for secondary analysis and by displaying the utility of this approach for addressing new research questions; 4. Providing technical assistance to users of the data sets including organized trainings when proposed and approved or directed by the COR; 5. Providing technical assistance to investigators at the inception of research projects determined by the COR to be a high priority to ensure the data can be easily and effectively archived at project completion; 6. Developing a system to prioritize datasets and apply the appropriate level of curation to high priority datasets while making others available with less curation and cost; and 7. Staying abreast of advances in the field of data archiving and integrating cutting edge strategies into the archive and implementing them when directed by the COR. Offerors shall demonstrate their experience and ability to use a combination of data archiving, data management, data analytic, training and administrative skills in support of these goals. Offerors shall describe their existing infrastructure to support both the basic elements of data archiving as well as the necessary tools to assist with data deposits for investigators as well as tools to assist end users to understand the utility of a dataset for addressing their research questions and to assist them in the use of data. These tools would include data search tools and on-line analysis tools. Offerors shall possess the necessary equipment, facilities, and developed infrastructure (i.e. websites, data archiving capacity, tools for mining and exploring the data, model sharing legal agreements, etc.) for this project. Offerors shall demonstrate their experience in data archiving and shall be able to demonstrate that they are a leader in the field of data archiving by showing peer reviewed and other publications relevant to maintaining a social science data archive and demonstrating cutting edge knowledge of data archiving. Finally, Offerors shall have a developed infrastructure to support restricted use to data through a variety of practices depending on data sensitivity, ranging from experience with restricted access to possession of the necessary infrastructure to support a virtual data enclave. Offers shall meet the following Mandatory Criteria: 1. One Ph.D. or other terminal degree level social scientist shall be included as key personnel. NIDA anticipates the award of one cost reimbursement term / Level of Effort (LOE)-type contract with a base period of one year with four option years. In addition to the options to extend the contract period, option quantities are also anticipated. RFP No. NIHDA201800362 will be available electronically on or about November 15, 2018. You can access the RFP through the FBO.gov or through the NIDA website: (URL: https://www.drugabuse.gov/funding/funding-opportunities/nida-requests-contract-proposals-rfps). All information required for the submission of a proposal will be contained in or accessible through the RFP package. Responses to the RFP will be due on or around December 21, 2018. NIDA will consider proposals submitted by any responsible offeror. This advertisement does not commit the Government to award a contract. Based upon market research, the Government is not using the policies contained in Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, in its solicitation for the described supplies or services. However, interested persons may identify to the Contracting Officer their interest and capability to satisfy the Government's requirement with a commercial item within 15 days of this notice.
