   PSC Category: R499 - Support- Professional: Other

   The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) within the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has issued a Special Notice announcing a virtual Market Research Industry Day for the HHS One Professional Services Solution (HOPSS) contract. The HOPSS contract will provide professional services to support HHS's strategic goals of enhancing healthcare access, safeguarding health conditions, strengthening social well-being, and advancing scientific research. This parent contract will enable HHS and potentially other federal agencies to obtain professional services across two primary task areas: Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Services and Business and Operational Services to Support STEM Activities. The contract will replace the current Scientific Operations and Administrative Resources Contract (SOAR) that has been in place since 2003. The HOPSS program will serve HHS's 13 operating divisions, which include agencies focused on healthcare, human services, research, and public health.

   The primary objective of the Market Research Industry Day is to provide industry stakeholders with information about the HOPSS requirement and gather feedback through an interactive session. The virtual event is scheduled for Tuesday, November 19, 2024, from 2:00-3:15 PM ET, and all interested businesses are required to register by Friday, November 15, 2024, at 12:00 PM ET. The event is open to both small and other-than-small businesses, with potential prioritization of small business attendance if necessary. Participants must provide specific registration information, including organization details, size status, and interest level (as a prime offeror or teaming arrangement). Following the event, NIDA intends to post a summary of questions and answers on SAM.gov. Qualified small businesses are encouraged to submit capability statements in response to a separate Small Business Sources Sought Notice. The solicitation is expected to be released in spring 2025, with contract awards anticipated in summer 2026, and the contract will use NAICS code 541690 for "Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services".
