About this opportunity

The Department of Health and Human Services' Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) is seeking a contractor to develop standardized radiation dosimetry guidelines for nonclinical research models across its Radiological and Nuclear Countermeasures (RadNuc) research portfolio. The primary objective is to create a centralized dosimetry harmonization program that ensures consistent and accurate radiation exposure data across research institutions. The solicitation requires the contractor to compile and maintain a catalog of phantoms, fabricate new phantoms for animal radiation experiments, evaluate radiators, and establish protocols for precise radiation measurement. Proposals are due by January 3, 2025, with a question submission deadline of December 13, 2024. The contract will be awarded as a cost-plus-fixed-fee (CPFF) arrangement, with proposals expected to demonstrate technical capability, past performance, and expertise in radiation dosimetry and phantom manufacturing.

The contract will have a 2-year base period with potential extension through three additional 1-year option periods, for a maximum performance timeline of 5 years. No specific set-aside designation is noted for this opportunity, making it open to all qualified contractors. The place of performance is Washington, DC, with on-site evaluations expected at approximately 6 facilities during the base period, potentially expanding to 8-9 facilities in subsequent years. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated, the contract will involve capital investments in phantom development and radiation measurement equipment. The contractor must have radiation facilities that meet dosimetry standards and the capability to fabricate and maintain phantoms for both small and large animal research models. One contract is anticipated to be awarded to a single vendor or research institution, with an estimated award date in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Notice text

BARDA has identified a need to develop standardized radiation dosimetry guidelines for nonclinical models used by research institutions across the Radiological and Nuclear Countermeasures (RadNuc) radiation research portfolio.  Standardized guidelines leading to dosimetry harmonization across the portfolio are necessary to ensure consistent, accurate data and to facilitate comparison across studies.
