The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) has a requirement

for the operation of the National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and Drug

Information (NCADI).  This is an unrestricted recompetition of a

current contract with Social and Health Services, Ltd., Rockville,

Maryland.  The Clearinghouse facilities shall be separately

identified headquarters site and warehouse.  NCADI's specific purpose

is to collect, analyze, process, synthesize, prepare, promote, and

disseminate prevention, intervention, and treatment information on

alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs (ATOD) and other cross-cutting

issues (e.g., HIV/AIDS, violence, child abuse), to a wide array of

customers, including parents, the elderly, law enforcement officers,

teachers, doctors, reporters, and others.  The contractor will be

required to maintain the clearinghouse to ensure the widespread

dissemination of such information.  To achieve this purpose, the

contractor will also work with a broad array of intermediaries,

including the Regional Alcohol and Drug Awareness Resource (RADAR)

Network, and will disseminate information to scientists, policy

makers, planners, practitioners, educators, health care providers,

the media, and the general public to ensure full public access to

free and at-cost information on ATOD use and effective approaches to

reducing ATOD-related problems in the United States.  NCADI is also

the single point of entry for a network of all the Federal alcohol

and drug clearinghouses, known as the "Federal Drug, Alcohol, and

Crime Clearinghouse Network," established by the Office of National

Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) in cooperation with the Department of

Health and Human Services, the Department of Justice, the Department

of Housing and Urban Development, and the Department of Education.

It is anticipated that one contract award will be made under this RFP

for a four-year period with a one-year option for continuation as

well as other options.
