The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), through its Office of Research Administration, has been awarded multiple contracts by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to support the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) program.
The first contract is a $913,852.00 cost-no-fee delivery order for Task Area B Exam 7 of the MESA Field Center, with work to be performed at UCLA's facilities in Los Angeles. The second contract is a $3,889,362.00 cost-no-fee delivery order for Task Area A, which includes annual follow-up of cohort members, clinical events investigations, study operations, and data analysis for the MESA program. Both contracts have no set-aside designations, and the parent organization for UCLA is the State of California Controller's Office. The original contract opportunity, posted as a pre-solicitation in 2018, sought field center support for the long-running MESA program, which investigates risk factors for cardiovascular disease in diverse populations. UCLA, as a prime contractor with extensive experience supporting federal research initiatives, is well-positioned to deliver the required epidemiological study management, clinical site operations, and data services for this NIH-sponsored program.
