NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (NAICS) CODE The associated NAICS code for this requirement is 812332 with size standard of $41.5 Million. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES The National Institute on Aging (NIA), one of the 27 Institutes and Centers of NIH, leads a broad scientific effort to understand the nature of aging and to extend the healthy, active years of life.

One of the IRP's program activities includes the Clinical Research Core (CRC) part of the NIA Clinical Unit within the Office of the Scientific Director. The CRC seeks to elucidate normative values and separate normal aging findings from disease states. The CRC's goal is to prolong disease-free states with age. The CRC serves as an infrastructure to facilitate the creation and development of therapeutic targets for the treatment of age-related disease across the Intramural Research Program. The CRC performs research in various protocol studies that have direct clinical applications to aging and disease states. Participants in the various protocols may spend one or more days in the Clinical Unit participant rooms. Therefore, clean linens are required for exams and participants' overnight stays. The CRC has 13 beds in addition to 2 exam rooms and 8 treatment rooms. The clinical unit has an average weekly population of approximately 50 participants per week. The average bed turnover rate will be 3-4 beds every 2-3 days and the treatment and exam rooms every 2-3 hours for 6 hours each day.
