B -- HAZARD ANALYSIS CRITICAL CONTROL POINT GENERIC MODELS SOL FSIS-1-W-96 DUE 010996 POC Contact Point, Claudia Andrews, (202)720-9891 The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has a requirement to develop 10 (ten) Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) Generic Models for the implementation of the Pathogen Reduction HACCP regulation. FSIS is soliciting proposals from qualified sources with scientific expertise to develop generic models for use by regulated companies with limited knowledge of HACCP, particularly by small establishments that may have limited technical resources. The purpose of the models is to provide guidance in devising plant-specific HACCP plans. Sources will be expected to involve a variety of subject matter experts (i.e. academics, industry representative, public health officials, and consumers). FSIS estimates a total performance period of 3 months. Offerors may submit proposals for the total project or for one or more of the individual models. Solicitation packages will be available on or about November 6, 1995. Request for solicitation documents must be made in writing and may be faxed to 202-690-1814. No telephone requests will be honored. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. (0296)
