The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) is planning to issue an RFP for a follow-on contract for the NIAAA Alcohol Policy Information System (APIS). This will be competed as a 100% Set-Aside for Small Business concerns whereby only Small Business concerns will be eligible for award (size standard for associated NAICS is 1,000 employees).

This acquisition represents a follow-on requirement to the active NIAAA Alcohol Policy Information System (APIS) contract, HHSN275201800002C, with The CDM Group, Incorporated. The anticipated follow-on contract is anticipated to be a cost-plus fixed fee, term, level of effort contract with a base period of 12 months and four successive 12-month term options for a total possible period of performance of 5 years (anticipated period of performance 1/1/2023 through 12/31/2027 if all term options are exercised).

The purpose of this acquisition is to provide continued operation and maintenance of the NIAAA Alcohol Policy Information System (APIS), including the public web site at http://alcoholpolicy.niaaa.nih.gov and the associated data structures and repositories. In addition to maintaining and updating the public website, the contractor performs legal research, synthesis and analysis to provide detailed, reliable, and timely information on alcohol-related policies as well as cannabis policies adopted by governments at the State and Federal levels in the United States. The purpose of APIS is to provide researchers with accurate information so they can conduct studies of the effects of specific changes in these policies. Intended primarily as a tool for researchers, APIS features compilations and analyses of alcohol and cannabis statutes and regulations. APIS is designed to simplify the process of ascertaining the state of the law for studies of the effects and effectiveness of alcohol and cannabis policies.

THE PENDING SOLICITATION WILL BE AVAILABLE ELECTRONICALLY ONLY. OFFERORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ROUTINELY CHECKING THE SAM.GOV CONTRACT OPPORTUNITIES WEBSITE FOR ANY POSSIBLE SOLICITATION AMENDMENTS THAT MAY BE ISSUED.
