POC Contact Mr. Robert Stallings, Contract Specialist, 301/496-4611!! The National Institiute of Child Health and Human Development is planning to negotiate a 12 month contract extension with the University of Kentucky for completion of work begun under contract N01-HD-3-3184. The negotiations will be conducted under U.S.C. 253 (c)(1) as set forth in FAR 6.302-1. The extension is necessary to allow the contractor to perfect multicompartment tablets for a sustained release N-9 delivery system. Inherent duplication of costs and unnecessary delays make competition unfeasible for completion of this project. Posted 09/03/98 (W-SN245755). (0246)
