- Description
- The National Cancer Institute(NCI), Research Contracts Branch (RCB), plans to procure logistical support in preparation of the HBCU/MI Proposal Writing Workshop from Dillard University, 2601 Gentilly Boulevard, New Orleans, LA 70122. The purpose is to provide the selected institutions's faculty and staff tutorial instruction in the dvelopment of a response to a Request for Proposal (RFP), approaches to cost analyzes, evaluation of proposals, and how to avoid fatal flaws. Dillard University will provide all the necessary Logistical Support for the workshop. Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions (HBCU/MI) continue to play a significant role in the education of minorities, make outstanding intellectual and scientific contributions that are indispensable to the broader society, and serve as centers for ethnic and minority culture. These institutions, however, have experienced difficulties in writing grants and contracts as a result of competitively issued Request for Proposals (RFP) for Research and Development Requirements (R&D) from the Federal and State Government and in many cases in the private sector as well. During the 1990s HBCU/MI's comprised approximately 12.7 percent of all U.S. Institutions conducting research and development, yet they received less than 1.5 percent of the research dollars awarded to institutions of higher education. Dillard University is the only known source to NCI that can provide the necessary services required by the Agency. Dillard University will provide all services on their Campus in New Orleans, LA. The services will be performed by Dillard University staff and students. This is not a solicitation for competitive quotations. However, if any interested party believes it can provide the above services, it may submit a statement of capabilities. The statement of capabilities and any other information furnished must be in writing and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NCI to determine if the party can perform the requirement. Capability statements must be in writing and received in the contracting office by 2:00 PM EST, on March 20, 2002. For further information please contact Cynthia Brown, Purchasing Agent, on (301) 402-4509. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No collects calls will be accepted. NAICS Code 611710. PLEASE NOTE: Due to our temporary relocation, all bids/capability statements should be sent to **6116 Executive Blvd., Room 205, Rockville, MD 20892 until further notice.
