The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center plans to award a sole-source fixed-price purchase order to the University of Maryland Medical Center, LLC, to establish a biorepository of patients suspected of or diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension. The effort will involve collecting blood samples, demographic data, clinical assessments, and outcome information from enrolled subjects to support translational research aligned with all World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension groups. This activity is funded by the 2026 Research Award for Staff Clinicians and requires collaboration with a local center of excellence affiliated with the funding institute, justifying the non-competitive procurement under simplified acquisition procedures. The work is to be performed in Bethesda, Maryland, and the contract falls under the Product Service Code 5417 and NAICS Code 541714 for biotechnology research and development. This action is not a solicitation for quotes but a notice of intent to proceed with a sole-source award, as permitted under FAR Part 13, which allows for non-competitive contracting when only one source is reasonably available. The government has determined that competition is not required due to the specific institutional affiliation needed to maintain research integrity and compliance with the awarded funding. Interested parties may respond with their capabilities by July 28, 2026, but the government retains full discretion to proceed without competition regardless of submissions. All feedback must be directed to Kristin Nagashima at the NIH Clinical Center Office of Purchasing and Contracts via email before the deadline.
