About this file
This document consists of vendor questions and government responses related to the federal contract opportunity for Portfolio Impact Analysis for the Therapeutic Development Branch (TDB) at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS).
The key details are: The government clarified that use of the IMPLAN model is not a requirement, and vendors may propose to use any appropriate model that can analyze the quantitative and qualitative data and address the direct, indirect and induced impacts of the R&D activities. Vendors will need to describe the rationale for their proposed model(s) by providing details on the model's capabilities and why it was chosen. The overall goal of this effort is to capture key metrics and evaluate the program's research outcomes, including analyzing the economic and other impacts on further research, development, and healthcare.

VENDOR QUESTIONS AND GOVERNMENT RESPONSES
75N95024Q00564
TITLE: Portfolio Impact Analysis for the Therapeutic Development Branch (TDB), NCATS
QUESTION 1: In the statement of work document, it mentions IMPLAN as an example under specific requirements. Is the IMPLAN model itself a specific requirement, or would alternative models be considered?
GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: Use of IMPLAN is not a requirement. IMPLAN was mentioned as an example but vendors may propose to use any appropriate model. The critical factor is that any model(s) the vendor may develop must be able to analyze the quantitative and qualitative data to be gathered from the collaborators, and must be able to address the direct, indirect and induced impacts of the R&D activities.
It will be important for vendors to describe in their quotes the rationale for using their proposed model(s). This could be accomplished by providing a detailed description of the model(s) and its capabilities, a side-by-side comparison of the chosen model(s) compared to other model(s), or any other approach that communicates the capabilities of the model(s) and why it was chosen.
