- Description
- The Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) , Department of Health and Human Services contemplates awarding a one year cost reimbursement contract with four option years. This solicitation is issued under Full and Open Competition. SAMHSA, as are all Federal agencies, is required by the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA) to develop and monitor performance measures so that it can demonstrate accountability for all of its programs. CSAT must ensure that its varying activities support and are integrated with the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and SAMHSA strategies, performance measurement systems, and long-term programmatic plans. The purpose of this contract is to consolidate GPRA reporting and related activities for CSAT?s entire discretionary program under one umbrella; these are currently spread across multiple CSAT Technical Assistance and GPRA contracts. This contract for the Services Accountability Improvement System (SAIS) will provide funding to cover GPRA activities for all CSAT discretionary programs, specifically for use in conducting accountability and performance assessments of these programs, making such information available to CSAT Project Officers for improved project oversight and CSAT management for improved staff and grantee portfolio oversight. In addition, the contract will provide support for the delivery of training and technical assistance to grantees on the collection of GPRA data, serving as a data entry point for GPRA data collection as well as a data repository. The Services Accountability Improvement System will provide additional support for GPRA and CSAT accountability and management activities, separate from grantees? programmatic funding, and will ensure a coordinated focus on GPRA, performance monitoring and accountability data, across all discretionary grant programs. It is expected that improved funding availability will lead to more, and better data on programs and potentially will contribute to standardization of key data elements across all CSAT discretionary programs. Specifically, CSAT will have, at a minimum, the capacity to report for all CSAT programs on: Particular populations served, numbers of people served, types and locations of particular activities supported, effectiveness across programs for particular populations, the characteristics and effectiveness across programs of activities relative to national, subpopulation and geographic area data and trends. The estimated date for issuance of this RFP is May 8, 2003 with proposal responses due June 9, 2003. This solicitation may be obtained in any of three ways; by mail; picked up in person at 5515 Security Lane, Suite 640, Rockville, MD 20852; or, electronically at the SAMHSA web site: http:/samhsa.gov/contracts.
