NIH has issued a notice that it intends to extend the National Institutes of Health Conference and Administrative Travel Services Contract (NIHCATS II) effective 5/1/2018 through 4/30/2019. The current NIHCATS II IDIQ is due to expire on April 30, 2018.
Evaluation for the NIHCATS III contract is still ongoing, and no source selection determinations have yet been made for NIHCATS III. OLAO does not plan to delay the evaluation of NIHCATS III as a result of the extension. The extended period of performance is to ensure continuity of services for the NIH and to minimize any disruption to the NIH until NIHCATS III is effective.
Responses are due by April 23, 2018.
