About this award
The Food and Drug Administration awarded a $813,633 firm fixed-price delivery order to Research Triangle Institute (RTI International) on September 29, 2023, for research on nicotine salts leaching of metals into e-liquids, with completion scheduled for January 19, 2027. The work will be performed in Calverton, Maryland. This delivery order was issued without a set-aside designation, reflecting RTI's competitive positioning as a prime contractor. The contract falls under RTI's existing Blanket Purchase Agreement with the FDA valued at $70 million through December 2030 for Quick Turnaround Social Science Research Services, enabling efficient task order issuance for rapid evidence synthesis and policy evaluation.
RTI International, a prominent nonprofit research organization headquartered in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, brings extensive expertise in tobacco-related research and regulatory support to this assignment. The FDA has previously engaged RTI for tobacco laboratory analysis, youth tobacco surveys, and evaluation of public education campaigns. This nicotine salts research aligns with the FDA's regulatory oversight of tobacco products and emerging nicotine delivery systems, supporting the agency's evidence-based policymaking in this domain. As a multidisciplinary research organization with established federal relationships, RTI is well-positioned to deliver the laboratory analysis and scientific findings necessary to inform FDA regulatory decisions regarding metal leaching in e-liquid products.
