AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center intends to award a sole-source contract to W.T. Cox Information Services for enterprise licenses to Elsevier Clinical eLearning programs, designed to support the professional development of Clinical Educators, nurse preceptors, and newly licensed registered nurses participating in the Clinical Research Nursing Residency Program. The acquisition includes four proprietary educational components: Transition to Nursing Professional Development Practice, Mosby’s Preceptor Course License, Mosby’s Preceptor Kit, and Transition to Practice—all of which deliver evidence-based, online curricula focused on adult learning principles, clinical judgment, patient safety, communication, resilience, and professional accountability. These programs are essential to maintaining accreditation under the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Practice Transition Accreditation Program and to ensuring standardized, high-quality training across all nursing services at the NIH Clinical Center. The contract value is estimated at $23,321.00 for a one-year base period running from September 30, 2026, through September 29, 2027, with optional extensions to be negotiated thereafter. This procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1 as a sole-source acquisition because Elsevier is the exclusive provider of these proprietary educational resources, and no other vendor offers comparable content that meets the NIH Clinical Center’s specific accreditation and training requirements. The acquisition does not involve physical delivery or packaging requirements, as all materials are delivered electronically via enterprise access to an online learning platform, with ongoing content updates and technical support provided by Elsevier. The Government will accept the deliverables based on verified system access, alignment with professional standards, and functionality within the clinical training environment. While no formal evaluation factors, scoring criteria, or line-item pricing are detailed, responses to this Notice of Intent must be submitted as capability statements via email to Valerie Gregorio by 12:00 PM Eastern Time on August 8, 2026, referencing the solicitation number NOI-CC-OLAO-26-006147. The contracting activity is the NIH Clinical Center Office of Purchasing and Contracts, with Helen S. Mayberry serving as the program director overseeing nursing professional practice and Amber Scott designated as the administrative officer. No set-asides, socioeconomic certifications, security clearances, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are applicable, and the contract type is presumed to be firm-fixed price under simplified acquisition procedures for commercial items.
