About this award

The National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a definitive cost-plus-no-fee contract to Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center for the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Clinical Coordinating Center, effective April 1, 2016, with a ceiling value of approximately $60.3 million and an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2021. This non-set-aside contract is performed in Seattle, Washington, and represents the NHLBI's continued investment in the WHI, a landmark longitudinal study examining women's health across multiple domains including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and aging. Fred Hutchinson, a leading nonprofit cancer research organization, was selected to coordinate clinical operations for this multi-institutional research initiative, providing centralized management of study protocols, data collection, event adjudication, and biospecimen management across participating clinical sites.

The contract encompasses comprehensive clinical coordinating center services supported by a robust subcontracting network. Key subcontractors include the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (heart failure event adjudication and database management), University of Washington (cardiovascular event adjudication and scientific collaboration), University of California San Diego (leadership on aging and osteoporosis research domains), and Fisher Bioservices (off-site biobanking and specimen management). Additional support services are provided by federal agencies including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (death record searches) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (data access), alongside commercial vendors providing medical reference databases (Uptodate/Wolters Kluwer), scanning services (Scantron), IT infrastructure (Oracle, PC Specialists), postal services (USPS), and office support (U.S. Government Publishing Office). This comprehensive subcontracting structure enables Fred Hutchinson to deliver the integrated scientific, administrative, and logistical functions required to maintain the operational and scientific integrity of the WHI across its extended performance period.
