The Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration awarded an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract to Semanticbits LLC to develop computerized labeling review tools. Under the terms of the IDIQ, three delivery orders have been awarded against the contract vehicle to date. The delivery orders provide for computerized labeling assessment and review tool services to support the FDA's regulatory programs, leveraging the contractor's expertise in artificial intelligence and natural language processing. Delivery orders have been performed in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia for periods ranging from approximately one year to just over two years. Collectively, the delivery orders are valued at nearly $3.5 million. No subcontractors or socioeconomic set-asides were specified for the IDIQ or associated delivery orders. The computerized tools developed under this effort aim to enhance the FDA's ability to efficiently evaluate product labeling, advancing the agency's modernization goals through innovative technology solutions.
The first delivery order was awarded on September 21, 2020 for nearly $575,000 to provide computerized labeling review tool services through September 2024 in Takoma Park, Maryland. Pricing is based on labor hours.
