AI Contract Overview
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute plans to extend the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) Field Centers through a limited competition among the current 40 active field center contracts. These centers have been instrumental in the recruitment, examination, and follow-up of over 161,000 women participating in a large clinical trial and observational study focused on cardiovascular disease risks in older women of diverse backgrounds. The extension will consolidate the existing field centers into a smaller number—approximately four to six regional centers—resulting in more streamlined management, enhanced coordination of regional activities, clinical outcomes documentation, and support for ancillary studies and investigator training. This consolidation will be effective around September 30, 2010, and will continue the study's efforts in morbidity and mortality follow-up, comprehensive data analysis, and scientific publications utilizing the extensive WHI data. The restructuring aims to reduce redundancy and delays inherent in managing numerous separate centers. The study's objectives remain centered on understanding risk factors for cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and related conditions in older women. The continuation involves maintaining rigorous data management, quality control, laboratory coordination, and ongoing monitoring systems through the WHI Coordinating Center. Subcontracting opportunities are expected during the contract term, particularly for laboratory work. Interested institutions may submit detailed capability statements to NHLBI for consideration. The contract management and point of contact are based in Bethesda, MD, with Peggy D. Mills serving as the Contracting Officer and Paul C. McFarlane as Chief of the PPS Branch.
