About this opportunity
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) within NIH and HHS is seeking small business capability statements through a Sources Sought notice for an anticipated IDIQ to establish and operate Research Consortia within the EmbraceHEALTH Clinical Research Network, with responses due November 19, 2026 at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. The Set Aside line reads "No Set-Aside Used," but the notice states that, based on capability statements received, the acquisition may be solicited as a small business set-aside. The attached notice identifies the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) as the publishing institute, which conflicts with the NICHD agency field. The anticipated NAICS is 541715 with a 1,000-employee size standard including affiliates, and the PSC is AN12. The notice encourages SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZone, VOSB, and SDVOSB respondents and directs organizations that are not small under 541715 not to respond. The anticipated contract is an IDIQ with an approximately five-year ordering period, with research activities awarded by task order. The network will conduct clinical and behavioral research to improve health outcomes and reduce health disparities in rural and urban areas across the United States and territories. Contractors must establish core research operations, ensure FDA and Good Clinical Practice compliance, manage a Data and Safety Monitoring Board and Community Advisory Groups, and maintain data management and biospecimen infrastructure. Required experience includes clinical intervention studies in real-world healthcare settings and partnerships with academic institutions or safety net providers, with expertise in biostatistics, implementation science, data science, informatics, and community engagement. Submissions go to Jordan Neal (Contract Specialist, jordan.neal@nih.gov) and Gannon White (Contracting Officer, gannon.white@nih.gov). The notice is for market research only, creates no Government obligation, and states that responses will not be considered adequate for any subsequent formal solicitation.
