About this opportunity

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), a component of the National Institutes of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded contract 75N95026C00006 to the University of Pittsburgh on November 1, 2025, for the establishment and operation of the NIH NeuroBioBank Brain and Tissue Repository. Under this cost-reimbursement contract valued at approximately $19.9 million, the University of Pittsburgh will be responsible for the complex and ongoing specimen accrual, maintenance, data management, storage, and distribution of brain tissues. The cost-reimbursement contract type was selected due to the inherent uncertainties in contract performance and the difficulty in precisely estimating costs associated with the variable scope of tissue collection and repository management activities. This award supports the critical infrastructure needed to maintain a centralized brain and tissue repository that will serve the research community's needs for neurobiological specimens.

Notice text

Due to the complexity and nature of this requirement, the extent of specimen accrual, maintenance, data management, storage and distribution of the brain tissues is unknown.  As a result, uncertainties involved in contract performance do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use any type of fixed-price contract.  Therefore, a cost reimbursement type contract was used for this acquisition due to the absence of precise specifications and difficulties in estimating costs with accuracy.  

Awarded contract 75N95026C00006 to UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH - OF THE COMMONWEALTH SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATION for 19907128.00 on 2025-11-01.
