New York University

New York University (NYU), doing business as NYU School of Medicine, is a prominent academic medical institution registered in SAM.gov since 2004 with a corporate tax-exempt structure. As a non-profit hospital and research organization, NYU provides extensive scientific services to federal agencies, with a particular focus on research, data science, and medical support. The institution has demonstrated significant capability in delivering specialized scientific and medical research services to various federal agencies, primarily the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Through federal contract awards, NYU has consistently delivered scientific services, particularly to the VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 (VISN 1). Its contract work includes data science, biostatistics, database management, data analysis, and medical research support for the VA Cooperative Studies Program. These contracts, which are typically firm fixed-price delivery orders, have ranged from $216,273.73 to $550,853.77 and involve leveraging VA electronic health records data. NYU has also worked as a subcontractor with companies like Luna Innovations, providing specialized services such as protein production and immunogenicity testing for HIV vaccine development efforts. Notably, these contracts have been awarded without specific set-asides, indicating NYU's competitive capabilities.

In terms of grant awards, NYU has participated in various sub-grant activities across multiple research domains. These include collaborative efforts with institutions like Research Triangle Institute, Brown University, Northwestern University, and Dignity Health. The grant work spans diverse research areas, such as Alzheimer's disease and related dementias research, where NYU researchers like Dr. Goldfeld have served on executive committees providing biostatistical assistance. Other grant activities have involved mixed-methods studies on cardiac rehabilitation, brain tissue research, and molecular and cellular studies, demonstrating NYU's broad scientific research capabilities.

NYU holds a significant Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the VA Veterans Health Administration, valued at $2.3 million over five years. This sole-source contract, awarded on September 30, 2022, with a completion date of September 29, 2027, allows for rapid commissioning of targeted studies. The IDC enables NYU to provide ongoing scientific services, epidemiological study support, and data analysis utilizing VA healthcare databases. Multiple delivery orders have already been issued under this contract, totaling over $1.3 million, which supports VA research priorities and leverages NYU's specialized expertise in scientific service provision.
