- Description
- It is the intent of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to procure professional services on a sole source basis with David Serlin, Ph.D, Brooklyn, NY, to continue services currently being provided by the contractor under purchase order number 467-MZ-201439. The contractor will continue to provide a range of historical services in related to History of Medicine (HMD)/NLM symposia, specifically the 2003 "Visual Culture and Public Health" symposium (formerly titled "Seeing Sickness: Public Health Crises and Visual Media"), in addition to continuing with the preparation of material for publication generated from the "New Frontiers of Biomedical Research, 1945-1980" symposium sponsored by the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health on October 29, 2001. Dr. Serlin was himself a speaker in the "New Frontiers of Biomedical Research, 1945-1980" symposium, chairing a panel titled "Psychopharmacology and Behavior". Dr. Serlin has made significant contributions to the planning and preparation of both symposia by serving as a member of the committee selecting speakers and topics to be discussed. Subsequent to the award of this purchase order, the program area has determined that the project requirement is significantly more complex than originally anticipated. Consequently, additional funds, time and effort are needed in order for the contractor to complete the project. Introducing a new contractor at this point in time would add significant amount of training time, government coordination, and therefore costs to the government. The proposed acquisition will be procured under FAR Part 13 - Simplified Acquisitions. This is not a Request for Quotations (RFQ), nor is an RFQ available, however, all responsible sources may submit a proposal, which will be considered by the NLM. Firms interested in responding to this notice must be able to provide service as specified above. Responses must be in writing and must be received in this office within fifteen (15) calendar days from publication date of this notice, and must include pricing information and meet the criteria requirement. Inquiries regarding this procurement may be made to the National Library of Medicine, Office of Acquisitions Management, 8600 Rockville Pike, Building 38A, Room B1N20, Bethesda, Maryland 20894, Attention: Uyen H. Phuong, Lead Purchasing Agent, on (301) 496-6127. Fax requests WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
