AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health, through the Specialized Scientific Information Technology Division, intends to award a sole source purchase order to CloudResearch LLC. This procurement is designed to provide an online recruitment platform to support behavioral nutrition studies conducted by the Division of Population Health Research within the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The primary objective is to recruit specific, hard-to-reach populations, specifically adolescents and Spanish-speaking parents of young children, to meet study enrollment requirements. The required platform must be specifically designed for research rather than general crowdsourcing and must support longitudinal studies by allowing researchers to re-contact participants. Key technical requirements include the ability to rapidly recruit hundreds of eligible participants, maintain high-quality data through screening and management controls, and facilitate routing to external NIH websites. While the government has identified CloudResearch LLC as the only available source, other organizations may submit capability statements by September 10, 2026, to demonstrate that competition would be advantageous to the government.

Full Description
THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE ORDER WITHOUT PROVIDING FOR FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION OR A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS.
GENERAL
This notice is issued in accordance with Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) 12.201-1(c)(2), advertising the Government's intent to issue an award on a sole source basis under the authority established in RFO 12.102(a). The National Institutes of Health, Specialized Scientific Information Technology (SSIT) Division anticipates issuing a single Purchase Order (PO) to the following entity:
CLOUDRESEARCH LLC

BACKGROUND
Researchers within the Division of Population Health Research of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) require services from an online recruitment platform to support behavioral nutrition studies with adolescents and Spanish-speaking parents. The studies require recruiting participants from specific populations, including adolescents and Spanish-speaking parents of young children. These populations are difficult to recruit through many online recruitment platforms because the number of eligible Spanish-speaking parents of young children are typically insufficient to meet study enrollment requirements. The recruitment platform must be capable of providing sufficient numbers of participants from both populations to support the planned research studies.
This platform must meet the following requirements:
- The platform must be designed specifically to support research studies rather than general crowdsourcing activities for which research is only a secondary use.
- The platform must allow recruitment of sufficient numbers of adolescents and Spanish-speaking parents of young children to meet study enrollment requirements.
- The platform must support longitudinal research by enabling researchers to re-contact and re-recruit participants for follow-up surveys and assessments.
- The platform must support rapid recruitment of participants, including the ability to recruit hundreds of eligible participants within a relatively short timeframe.
- The platform must support collection of high-quality research data through participant screening, participant management, and data quality controls.
- The platform must facilitate routing to external, NIH websites and surveys.
Based on market research, only one source is available to furnish these services.
RESPONSES
There will not be a solicitation or competitive Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued as a result of this announcement. Any responses or inquiries to this notice must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence that competition will be advantageous to the Government.

Acknowledgement of receipt of responses will not be made, nor will respondents be notified of the evaluation of the information received.
