The Defense Health Agency is overseeing this procurement, which requires contractors with specific knowledge of the Army's Biological Personnel Reliability Program (BPRP) and Controlled Substance Personnel Reliability Program (CS-PRP). Potential contractors must demonstrate capabilities to work in Biosafety Level (BSL)-2 through BSL-4 biocontainment laboratories and support various scientific divisions including Bacteriology, Molecular Biology, Virology, and Diagnostic Systems. Responses must be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF format, limited to 5 pages, and received by December 19, 2024, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time. All respondents must be registered in SAM.gov as a Small Business under NAICS code 541714 with active 8(a) certification.
The procurement is specifically set aside for 8(a) small businesses, targeting companies with expertise in biotechnology research and development. While no specific incumbent contractor is mentioned, the contract is expected to cover support services across multiple scientific directorates with a potential contract period from April 2025 through March 2030, including option years. The scope of work encompasses comprehensive support for USAMRIID's mission of protecting warfighters from biological threats and investigating disease outbreaks, with contractors required to have personnel capable of meeting stringent biosafety, biosecurity, and personnel reliability program standards. Respondents will be evaluated based on their capability statements and fact sheets, with a focus on technical expertise, laboratory experience, and understanding of complex scientific research environments. This is currently a market research effort and will not immediately result in a contract award, but will inform future procurement strategies.
