The Product and Service Code (PSC) AN31 encompasses Health Research and Development Services, specifically focusing on Consumer and Occupational Health and Safety, as well as Basic Research. This category includes scientific and medical research projects that explore health-related topics such as substance use, occupational health, medical screening, and health disparities. The research spans preclinical studies, testing services, and innovative health-related investigations across various disciplines and methodologies.

The federal contract awards in this PSC category demonstrate a diverse range of health research projects, typically ranging from approximately $25,000 to $1.2 million in value, with performance periods spanning from one to five years. Key funding agencies include the National Institute for Minority Health and Health Disparities, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Most contracts are firm fixed-price or cost-no-fee, with no specific set-aside preferences, and are often awarded to academic institutions, research centers, and specialized health service providers such as Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, North Carolina State University, and Stanford University.

The federal contract opportunities within this PSC category focus on specialized health and safety research, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's intent to conduct Man-In-Simulant-Testing (MIST) for evaluating firefighting personal protective equipment. The opportunities typically involve sole-source acquisitions for unique research capabilities, with a focus on testing, analysis, and scientific investigation of health-related topics. Performance locations are predominantly within the United States, and the solicitations emphasize technical expertise, specialized research methodologies, and innovative approaches to addressing complex health and safety challenges.
