This is a Presolicitation notice.

The agency is announcing an upcoming solicitation. Watch for the actual RFP/RFQ to be posted later.

The National Institutes of Health needs a small business to provide medicinal chemistry services for therapeutic development.

Key Details

  • What exactly do they need? Medicinal chemistry services including project management and reporting, compound logistics, synthesis, computational chemistry, and in vitro ADMET studies in support of preclinical drug discovery efforts.
  • What is the timeline? The contract has an ordering period of March 16, 2018 to March 15, 2028.

This is a non-competitive modification to an existing contract, and the NIH is looking for a small business to continue providing medicinal chemistry services for therapeutic development. The contract includes two performance areas: tech transfer, storage handling, and distribution, and medicinal chemistry support. The NIH wants a contractor that can continue its work on existing and ongoing projects simultaneously in the three chemistry stages and rapidly scale up or down the number of staff dedicated to the contract.

Who can apply

  • Must be a certified small business
