Description
Background Information/Purpose. The War Related Illness and Injury Study Center (hereafter DC WRIISC ) in Washington, DC is a national post-deployment health resource for the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). The WRIISC develops and provides post-deployment health expertise to Veterans and their health care providers through clinical programs, education and risk communication, and research. HOME serves Veterans and their families as the leader and authority on health outcomes of military exposures through science, policy, education, and communication. HOME is a trusted team that Veterans and stakeholders rely on as a definitive source of information on military exposures. HOME consists of four interrelated programs one of which is the WRIISC. The WRIISC thus requires the service expertise of a not-for-profit organization that provides scientific support related to military medicine and veteran health in support of this reorganization to leverage expertise acquired in the prior contract and apply it towards the new duties of these new workforce demands. In addition, WRIISC requires that the organization provides the support and administrative capabilities to allow WRIISC staff to maintain their scientific and clinical focus to achieve their goals for Veteran healthcare. The organization must have extensive experience managing clinical research in the military/veteran community with expertise in recruiting and hiring research personnel and knowledge of the Washington DC VA Medical Center. Specifically, the WRIISC is interested in maintaining capabilities in the form of staffing of a Health Coach to assist Veterans with making better health choices through lifestyle changes; an Associate Scientific Director, who will support the Research Director and Director at the WRIISC in scientific planning and research portfolio management; and an Epidemiologist with expertise study design and statistical methods. A Senior Education and Risk Communication Advisor (SERA), a doctorate level medical professional, will contribute strategic expertise in risk communication to enhance HOME outreach. The DC WRIISC will be utilizing the staff of the Henry Jackson Foundation (hereafter HJF ), which is a global organization dedicated to advancing military medical research. The VHA has an intent to sole source this procurement in accordance with FAR Part 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The HJF has been supporting these efforts and demonstrates a unique capability to provide the particular services proposed. For any additional information or questions, please contact the Contracting Officer: Robert O Keefe Jr. Robert.okeefejr@va.gov
