What this contract is for

Agency: HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, DEPARTMENT OF / NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH
Location: Chicago, IL
NAICS: 541715 - Scientific Research and Development Services (general category)
Scope: Federal

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to negotiate on a sole-source basis with the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) for preclinical animal research services to evaluate the therapeutic effects of soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) inhibition on pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) using an established endothelial cell-specific Cav1 knockout (EC-Cav1 KO) murine model and corresponding wild-type controls.

The Government intends to solicit from a single source pursuant to FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

UIC currently maintains the established EC-Cav1 KO mouse colony required for this study, and the model is not known to be maintained by another laboratory.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations.

However, all responsible sources that believe they can satisfy the Government's requirements may submit a capability statement and/or quotation for consideration by the Government.

Please see the attached Notice of Intent to Sole Source for the complete description of the requirement, basis for the intended sole-source acquisition, response instructions, and applicable response deadline.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
