This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued.

The solicitation number is HHS-NIH-NIDA-SSSA-CSS-2017-328 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP) as a total set aside for small business vendors. All responsible small business sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the Government. NIDA's mission is to advance science on the causes and consequences of drug use and addiction and to apply that knowledge to improve individual and public health. This charge has two critical components. The first is conducting and supporting research across a broad range of disciplines. The second is ensuring the rapid and effective dissemination, using the results of that research to significantly improve prevention and treatment, and informing policy as it relates to drug abuse and addiction. NIDA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR/STTR) programs contribute significantly to both critical components by researching and developing the commercial products and services for NIDA's constituency, academic researchers, practitioners and patients.

The objective of the requirement is to provide NIDA with professional services of (one) (1) experienced contractor in support of SBIR/STTR program. The contractor shall provide all resources necessary to accomplish the tasks and deliverables described in the attached Statement of Work (SOW). The contractor shall support a range of activities designed to increase NIDA's momentum in life science technology commercialization and to facilitate the maturation of NIDA's Small Business Programs.
