The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is seeking information in the form of capability statements from interested Small Businesses (NAICS Code 541611, small business size standard is $5 million) on a potential project for a Clinical Trials Network Administrative Support Center. The project is to provide resources to support the newly established Clinical Trials Network (CTN) Office.

To date a total of 14 RRTCs has been awarded nationwide. Each RRTC is affiliated with 5-8 Community-based Treatment Programs (CTPs). Multi-site clinical trials will be performed in these CTPs. This contract is to support the CTN Office in designing, implementing, and managing clinical trials to evaluate the effective pharmacological and behavioral therapies. The Contractor shall assist in protocol development, regulatory affairs, clinical trials monitoring, project management and other professional and technical support. No actual clinical or laboratory studies will be conducted under this contract. Organizations should demonstrate capability to administer and coordinate the interrelated tasks in an effective and timely manner. Documentation may include, but not be limited to, contracts both government and commercial that the organization has performed, references, i.e., names, titles, telephone numbers and any other information which would serve to document the organizations capability, e.g. awards, commendations, etc. This is not a request for proposals. This notice is for information purposes only and does not commit the Government to any contractual agreement. Any proprietary information should be so marked. Interested organizations submitting a capability statement in response to this sources sought announcement are required to identify their size status and submit two copies of the capabilities statement.
