VA RFI: Advanced Platform Technology (APT) Center Market Assessments

Notice ID: 36C24E23Q0133

Description

APT Center research projects have progressed to a critical point where decisions must be made on their future direction. These projects have shown promise for the clinical needs of veterans. Thus, an external assessment is required to provide feedback and direction as the projects move along the translational pathway.

Scope – Contractor will work with the APT Center to conduct market assessments and analyses of the business opportunities for APT Center projects. The intended relationship will be both advisory in which Contractor evaluates and provides external validation and recommendations, and active in which they help raise awareness and showcase our technologies to potential investors or industrial partners. The APT Center will take advantage of this valuable local resource to provide its Investigators with an objective, external evaluation of the potential impact of their projects and possible products. The Contractor’s Senior consultants and their dedicated team will conduct market assessments and analyses of the business opportunities for APT Center projects.

Investigators will provide Contractor with the Abstract, Specific Aims, Impact, and Significance sections of new grants in preparation, ongoing projects mid-term, or competing for continuations of existing projects before submission for analysis and objective external guidance on the marketability of their innovations and intended directions. Written materials will be complemented by extensive face-to-face interactions and opportunities to engage the Contractor’s professionals. The Contractor will then issue a report for each project consisting of written and oral/presentation components that summarize the translational potential of each Investigator’s discoveries or intended line of research and device development could include referrals to potential industrial partners or other valuable external resources for translation, such as the Case-Coulter Translational Research Partnership, State programs such as Jumpstart, the Technology Validation Fund, and Ohio Third Frontier.

We anticipate contracting market assessment services from awardee for a Base Year plus two (2) Option Years. The goal is to have external evaluations conducted for each of the Center’s projects funded by VA RR&D.
