The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) plans to solicit proposals to develop a valid and reliable, standardized instrument that measures the propensity to and severity of drug addiction. The instrument is expected to provide transformational, scientific, technical, and practical utility for addiction research through its capacity to quantify the likelihood of becoming addicted (propensity) and an objective measure of the extent to which addiction manifests once developed (severity).  The work requires the successful contractor to maintain a Federal-Wide Assurance for working with human subjects approved through the Office for Human Research Protections, NIH.

NIDA anticipates the award of one cost reimbursement contract for a period of 2-years with 2 twelve-month option periods.
