About this opportunity

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) is seeking a Contract Research Organization (CRO) to support the ADvanced Analysis for Precision Therapy (ADAPT) program, a groundbreaking clinical research initiative focused on improving cancer treatment strategies. The solicitation, issued by the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, requires a contractor to manage complex clinical trial data, conduct advanced biological specimen testing, and support regulatory submissions across breast, colon, and lung cancer research. Evaluation criteria will include past performance, assay testing verification, narrative responses, and pricing, with factors B and C (assay testing and narrative responses) considered more important than price. Key proposal deadlines include a questions submission deadline of April 3, 2025, and a proposal submission deadline of April 21, 2025 at 10:00 AM ET. The government will assess proposals using a comprehensive rating scale ranging from "Outstanding" to "Unacceptable" across multiple technical and performance dimensions.

The contract is set aside for small businesses with no more than 1,000 employees in the Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences industry (NAICS 541715). The solicitation anticipates a single award contract with a five-year performance period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2030, covering a base year and four option years. The total project scope includes approximately 1,700 patients and up to 17,000 molecular and genetic tests, including whole exome and transcriptome sequencing, ctDNA sequencing, and optional cfMeDIP-seq assays. The contract will be structured as a hybrid Firm Fixed Price and Time and Materials arrangement, with an estimated total potential value that suggests significant investment in precision cancer research. Performance will occur in Washington, DC 20005, with the contractor responsible for managing serial clinical trial data, developing regulatory strategies for in vitro diagnostic tests, and supporting ARPA-H's interconnected technical areas focused on innovative cancer therapy research.
