The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), a civilian agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, awarded an $8,899,219 Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) to provide a Training and Education Center (TEC) for cardiovascular epidemiology and related biomedical research. This IDC supports NHLBI's long-running Jackson Heart Study (JHS) program, which examines cardiovascular disease risk factors and outcomes, with a focus on underrepresented minority undergraduate and/or post-graduate students. Several task orders have been issued against this IDC, including a $1,898,414 Delivery Order for UMMC to serve as the JHS Graduate Training and Education Center, and two Delivery Orders totaling over $7 million for UMMC to perform field center functions for the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study through 2028. No set-asides were used for these contract awards. UMMC has a history of serving as both a prime contractor and subcontractor for federal health research and service projects. The NHLBI has also issued a special notice indicating its intent to sole source an extension and ceiling increase for the existing JHS Training and Education Center IDC held by UMMC. This action suggests NHLBI's continued commitment to the JHS program and its partnership with UMMC to provide specialized training and research opportunities in cardiovascular epidemiology for underrepresented minority students.
