(i) This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested, and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. (ii) The solicitation number is PCA-NHLBI-04751. This solicitation is issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI) for a non-competitive combined synopsis/solicitation to award a contract or purchase order without providing for full and open competition (including brand-name, if applicable). This acquisition is conducted under the authority of FAR 12.603, Streamlined Solicitation for Commercial Products or Commercial Services, and is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. Additional authority includes 41 U.S.C. 1901 and FAR 6.302-3(a)(2)(ii).

Inova Fairfax Hospital is a local community hospital in close proximity to the NIH with an established infrastructure to consent, enroll, collect samples, and transfer samples to the NIH within 48 hours of patient admission, and this requirement is a renewal of an existing contract where pausing sample collection to establish equivalent infrastructure elsewhere would be detrimental to the program.
