About this award

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration awarded a $22.213 million definitive contract to Research Triangle Institute for the National Laboratory Certification Program on September 2, 2022, under a cost-plus-award-fee structure with no set-aside designation.

The contract requires the prime to maintain certification for up to 24 laboratories participating in the program, including preparation of performance testing samples, evaluation of results, conduct of inspections, and drafting of reports to ensure drug testing results meet scientific and legal standards for federal agencies and regulated industries. Performance occurs in Durham, North Carolina.

The period of performance runs from the September 2, 2022 award through March 1, 2027, structured as a one-year base plus three one-year option periods. The originating pre-solicitation notice, posted January 19, 2022, sought capability statements from small businesses, though the award proceeded without a set-aside designation; the source indicates the current incumbent maintained the program prior to this award cycle.
