Synopsis: This is a Small Business Sources Sought notice. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding: (1) the availability and capability of qualified small business sources to perform a potential requirement; (2) whether they are small businesses; 8(a) small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses; veteran-owned small businesses; women-owned small businesses; HUBZone small businesses; or small disadvantaged businesses; and (3) their size classification relative to the North American Industry Classification system (NAICS) code for the potential acquisition. Your responses to the information requested will assist the government in determining the appropriate acquisition method, including whether a small business set aside is possible. An organization that is not considered a small business under the applicable NAICS code should not submit a response to this notice. The requirement is assigned a code of 541715 in the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and the small business size standard for such requirements is 1,000 employees or less. This notice is issued for market research purposes to assess potential small business sources, industry practices, and the availability of commercial services. The Government has not made a final determination regarding acquisition strategy, contract type, commerciality, or small business set-aside status. Respondents should identify whether they can perform the requirement as a prime contractor, including through existing teaming arrangements or qualified subcontractors, and distinguish their own capabilities from those of proposed team members. Background: The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) conducts and supports research and training programs to advance knowledge and understanding of health disparities, identify mechanisms to improve minority health and reduce health disparities, and develop effective interventions in community and clinical settings. NIMHD is the lead organization at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for planning, reviewing, coordinating, and evaluating minority health and health disparities research activities. NIMHD also promotes workforce development, supports research capacity at less-resourced institutions that train students in research careers, serves populations experiencing health disparities, supports participation in clinical research, and promotes information dissemination through regular communications, public education outreach, and scientific presentations. The President’s Executive Order (EO) 14212 Establishing the President’s Make America Healthy Again Commission aims to improve the health of Americans. As described in the EO, escalating burden of chronic diseases poses significant challenges in the United States. These conditions contribute to rising health costs, reduced workforce productivity, and stagnant life expectancies across the country, both in adults and children. NIH defines a health disparity as a measurable difference in health that exists between specific population groups. This is a rigorously derived and data-driven determination operationalized by quantifiable metrics, rather than a statement of attribution. It is a scientific starting point that identifies where health outcomes diverge, not a predetermined conclusion about why. Scientific investigations to identify or understand the root causes are separate and distinct scientific questions, which are necessarily multifaceted and complex. NIH funded research is interested in those health disparities that are modifiable or actionable to improve the health of all population groups. Health disparities may be observed in the risks, prevalence, or problems resulting from specific behaviors, as well as the incidence, prevalence, and mortality from conditions, diseases, and/or disorders. To fulfill the NIH mission of seeking fundamental knowledge about the nature and behaviors of individuals as living systems, and the statutory purpose of NIMHD, to conduct research to understand and reduce health disparities, NIMHD Division of Intramural Research (DIR) conducts population health research to understand how health outcomes vary across populations, identify multilevel modifiable factors that drive these disparities, and develop, test, and evaluate clinical and population-based interventions to reduce these disparities. NIMHD DIR requires contractor assistance to provide R&D social and behavioral sciences research services to support NIMHD DIR in conducting population health and clinical research to understand and reduce health disparities in the United States. The Government anticipates that individual task orders may involve differing research designs, study populations, sites, durations, and levels of complexity. Interested firms should explain their ability to mobilize qualified personnel and research resources for multiple concurrent studies as requirements arise. NIMHD is seeking small businesses capable of designing, conducting and overseeing the clinical, scientific, and technical aspects of investigations into health disparities across populations, to identify modifiable risk and protective factors associated with these disparities, and develop and test interventions to reduce these disparities. Study designs to be used may include, but are not limited to: Population-based cross-sectional surveys; Epidemiological studies (e.g., longitudinal cohort study, case-control studies); Clinical trials; Community-based intervention studies; Simulation modeling; and Qualitative research methods (e.g., direct observations, in-depth interviews, focus groups discussions). Independently and not as an agent of the Government, the Contractor shall furnish all necessary services, qualified personnel, material, equipment, and facilities not otherwise provided by the Government to successfully perform the requirements stated below. Specifically, the Contractor shall, as required by individual task orders, perform the following technical requirements summarized below that also are included in the attached Draft Statement of Work (SOW), including but not limited to: Provide personnel, facilities, and other services necessary to maintain and coordinate multiple health disparities research studies funded through task orders under this Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract.
