AI Contract Overview

The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) is seeking to conduct a five-year study aimed at evaluating the impact of behavioral interventions designed to improve carbohydrate quality in youth who have or are at risk for diabetes. The research focuses on promoting the intake of lower glycemic carbohydrates derived from nutrient-dense whole foods and assessing how such dietary adjustments can lead to better dietary habits and health outcomes in this population. The contract will be structured as a completion-type agreement with an initial two-year base period followed by three one-year option periods, allowing for incremental funding over the full term. NICHD plans to award a single contract through this procurement and will accept proposals from any responsible offeror.
