About this award
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency awarded a $1.91 million definitive contract to The Johns Hopkins University on September 29, 2020, to host multilateral and bilateral biosecurity dialogues between the United States, Southeast Asia, and India. This sole-source award was justified based on Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security's unique expertise in biosecurity, established relationships throughout the Indo-Pacific region, and six years of prior experience facilitating similar strategic dialogues. The contract, which runs through September 29, 2024, with an optional two-year extension, is structured as a cost-no-fee arrangement with performance based in Baltimore, Maryland. The award was made without small business set-aside designation under authority granted by 10 U.S.C. § 2304(c)(1) and 41 U.S.C. § 253(c)(1).
Under this contract, Johns Hopkins University will conduct dialogue sessions designed to improve biosafety, biosecurity, and biosurveillance capabilities among partner nations through relationship-building and gap identification. As a premier research institution with extensive federal contracting experience, Johns Hopkins brings sophisticated scientific expertise and established credibility in the region to support DTRA's mission of reducing threats from weapons of mass destruction and advancing international biosecurity cooperation. The contract deliverables focus on convening strategic discussions that enhance multilateral understanding of biosecurity challenges and foster diplomatic engagement on critical health security issues affecting the Indo-Pacific region.
