- Description
- Purpose of Notice: This is a Research and Development (R&D) Small Business Sources Sought notice. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding the availability and capability of Small Business sources to perform a potential R & D requirement. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding: (1) the availability and capability of qualified small business sources; (2) whether they are small businesses; HUBZone small businesses; service-disabled, veteran-owned small businesses; 8(a) small businesses; veteran-owned small businesses; woman-owned small businesses; or small disadvantaged businesses; and (3) their size classification relative to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for the proposed acquisition. Your responses to the information requested will assist the Government in determining the appropriate acquisition method, including whether a set-aside is possible. An organization that is not considered a small business under the applicable NAICS code should not submit a response to this notice. This notice is issued to help determine the availability of qualified companies technically capable of meeting the Government requirement and to determine the method of acquisition.� It is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately award a contract.� Responses will not be considered as proposals or quotes.� No award will be made as a result of this notice.� The Government will NOT be responsible for any costs incurred by the respondents to this notice.� This notice is strictly for research and information purposes only. The Government will not entertain questions regarding the results of this market research. Background:� The Division of Preclinical Innovation (DPI) at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) conducts translational research on human therapeutics development by moving small molecule and biologic drug candidates forward in the drug development pipeline. Upon reaching predetermined milestones, DPI hands off clinical candidates to external partners to bring these novel therapies to patients. In addition to developing new candidate drugs, DPI seeks to advance the entire field of drug discovery and development by encouraging scientific and technological innovations aimed at improving success rates in the crucial preclinical stage of drug development. DPI�s model is to operate as a comprehensive small molecule and biologics drug development organization, moving therapeutic candidates through each phase of the preclinical development process until an Investigational New Drug (IND) application is filed with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For certain drug development campaigns, DPI will support studies up to human Phase IIb. DPI conducts drug development through collaborations, with therapeutic candidates originating from academia, industry, non-profit foundations, or internally from NCATS and other NIH institutes. DPI�s operational strategy is to combine the capabilities of in-house staff and collaborative partners, who may be the drug originators, with complementary support from contract research organizations (CROs). Each development program operates in a multi-disciplinary matrix team environment, with a DPI project officer (PO) responsible for overall planning, execution, and reporting. The NCATS has an existing multiple-award IDIQ contract for Drug Substance Development and Manufacture. This potential procurement would be a re-competition of this existing contract. Purpose and Objectives: The purpose of this Small Business Sources Sought is to obtain information about Small Business capabilities to support the DPI drug development programs by providing Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control (CMC) services; specifically, the scale-up production of active pharmaceutical ingredients / drug substances. The goal of these support services is to ensure DPI receives Drug Substance (DS) of sufficient quality and quantity to support preclinical and IND-enabling studies.� Product formats may include small molecules, short oligomeric compounds, biological (large) molecules, quaternary molecular assemblies (homogenous or heterogenous), and any� of the above modified genetically, biologically, or chemically. Novel formats identified after this draft might also be needed. Formats could also include Devices or Combination Products. See attached Small Business Sources Sought for complete information.
