Description

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is soliciting proposals from qualified businesses to provide resources to support the newly established Clinical Trials Network (CTN). In an effort to dramatically improve drug abuse treatment throughout the country, NIDA established the CTN in September 1999 and has awarded fourteen Regional Research and Training Centers (RRTCs). Each RRTC has contractual agreement with 5-8 Community-based Treatment Programs (CTPs). Multi-site clinical trials will be conducted in these community program sites. This project is to support the work of the CTN in its conducting of clinical trials to evaluate the effectiveness of science-based behavior therapies and/or safe and effective medication therapies. For medication trials, the Contractor shall prepare medication kits for the patients, manage a drug testing quality assurance program, and distributing clinical supplies. No actual clinical or laboratory studies will be conducted under this contract. It is estimated that a three-year incrementally funded, level of effort type contract using work assignments will result from this procurement. The project will include two options, each for an additional year. RFP No. N01DA-1-2200 will be available electronically on or about March 26, 2001, and may be accessed through the NIDA website at the following address: (URL: http://www.nida.nih.gov/RFP/RFPList.html ) Please note that the RFP for this acquisition will be streamlined to include only the Work Statement, Deliverables and Reporting Requirements, Special Requirements and Mandatory Qualifications, Technical Evaluation Criteria, and other necessary Proposal Preparation Instructions.
