AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs, James J. Peters VA Medical Center, plans to negotiate a sole source contract with the New Jersey Institute of Technology to provide research support for a project focused on identifying new biomarkers to assess the risk of lower extremity fractures during exoskeleton-assisted ambulation in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). This collaboration involves multidisciplinary efforts, with NJIT contributing motion analyses and finite element modeling to assist in the development of a personalized rehabilitation approach. The research aims to pinpoint those at highest risk for fractures, particularly in the long bones and calcaneus, during weight-bearing activities using exoskeleton devices, which pose an increased fracture risk due to reduced bone density below the injury site. The outcome of this research is intended to guide evidence-based methods that minimize fracture occurrence and reduce associated medical complications and costs. While this is not a solicitation for competitive proposals, responsible entities capable of fulfilling the requirement may submit capability statements by a specified deadline. All communications should be directed to the designated contact, with responses to this notice subject to the government’s discretion regarding competitive sourcing. The contract details emphasize the unique expertise of NJIT and the critical nature of this research in improving rehabilitation outcomes for veterans with SCI through advanced biomechanical analysis.
