- Description
- The Naval Medical Readiness Logistics Command (NMRLC) intends to issue a sole source contract for NLCP inspection for Accreditation process for The Army Forensic Toxicology Drug Testing Laboratory (AFTDTL). The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), by the authority of Section 503 of Public Law 100-71, 5 U.S.C. Section 7301, and Executive Order No. 12564 established the scientific and technical guidelines for federal workplace drug testing programs and established standards for certification of laboratories engaged in urine drug testing for federal agencies.� As required, HHS originally published the Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Programs (Guidelines) in the Federal Register (FR) on April 11, 1988 [53FR 11979].� The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) subsequently revised the Guidelines on June 9, 1994 [59 FR 29908], September 30, 1997 [62 FR 51118], November 13, 1998 [63 FR 68483], April 13, 2004 [69 FR 19644], and November 25, 2008 [73 FR 71858] with an effective date of May 1, 2010 (correct effective date published on December 10, 2008 [73 FR 75122]).� The effective date of the Guidelines was further changed to October 1, 2010 on April 30, 2010 [75 FR 22809].� When the guidelines were first published in the Federal Register in 1998, HHS awarded a contract, known as the National Laboratory Certification Program (NLCP), to develop a laboratory certification program that satisfied the requirements specified in the Guidelines.� The contract was awarded to the Research Triangle Institute (RTI) of North Carolina, thus making RTI the mandatory source for laboratory certification. � The estimated award date is 20 December 2022. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.� Sources interested in responding to this notice are required to submit a capability statement that includes management and technical data and price information, in sufficient detail and with convincing evidence that clearly demonstrates the capability to perform the required work.� Capability statements shall not exceed 5 (8.5 x 11 inch) pages using a font size no smaller than 10-point.� All capability statements received by the due date of this notice will be considered by the Government.� A request for documentation or additional information will not be considered as an affirmative response or acceptance of the capability statement.� A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.� Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed with a sole source contract. Capability statements are due by 2:00 PM Local Time, 19 December 2022.� Capability statements shall be submitted by e-mail ONLY as a Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF attachment to the following address: curtis.e.cardoza.civ@health.mil. ��
