- This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE to determine the availability of small businesses (e.g., 8(a), veteran-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran owned small businesses, HUB Zone small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, and women-owned small businesses) with the capability to produce, store, and distribute labeled and unlabeled opioid peptides and related neuropeptides. These may include, but are not limited to, unlabeled, tritum or I-125 labeled opioid peptides, and related compounds. Qualified organizations must also be able to check the stability and purity of the compounds, maintain and store the compound inventory under secure conditions, and distribute the compounds to research investigators as directed by the NIDA Project Officer. In order to meet the demand for authentic, pure, and racemization free peptides, NIDA plans to maintain an inventory of approximately 40-45 peptides and some of their respective radio labeled compounds (approximately 23-25) and supply them primarily to NIDA grantees for use in NIDA supported studies and at the same time maintain capability to rapidly synthesize, on demand, new peptides that are potentially useful in drug abuse research. Interested organizations must demonstrate and document, in the capability statement submitted, extensive experience in the field of peptide synthesis, especially through solid phase peptide synthesis methodology and in the synthesis of opioid and related peptides, and the ability to perform the work. Send information relevant and specific in the technical area under consideration, on each of the following qualifications: 1) Experience: An outline of previous projects and work performed. Specifically, a- Synthesis of radio labeled and unlabeled opioid and related neuropeptides by solid phase synthetic methods; b-Separation of optically pure and racemization free opioid and neuropeptides, and c-Stability and Purity testing; 2) Personnel: Name, professional qualifications of personnel with specific experience; 3) Availability and description of facilities, equipment, and extensive experience with solid phase peptide synthesis, purification and characterization of peptides, in general, and opioid peptides. Any other specific and relevant information about this particular area of procurement that would improve our consideration and evaluation of the information presented is desirable. Documentation may include, but not limited to, contracts both Government and commercial the organization performed, references, i.e., names, titles, telephone numbers and any other information serving to document the organizations capability, e.g., awards, commendations, etc. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code identified for this requirement is 541710 with a size standard of 500 employees. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. This notice is for information purposes only and does not commit the Government to any contractual agreement.

The subject line shall read: Synthesis and Distribution of Opioid and Related Peptides. All capability statements must provide the following: 1) company name; 2) address; 3) point of contact; 4) phone/fax/e-mail; 5) NAICS Codes; and 6) business size and status; (e.g., small business, 8(a), veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran owned small business, HUB Zone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women owned small business) capability information in response to the requirement. The Government does not intend to award a contract based on responses under this announcement nor otherwise pay for preparing any information sent or the Government’s use of the information. Any proprietary information should be so marked. Written capability statements must be received no later than 3:00p.m. November 10, 2005.
