- Description
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) is seeking small businesses who possess the ability to construct, implant, and perform subject tests with a research Brain Computer Interface (BCI) able to acquire signals based on neural activity that can be modulated by a subject who is severely impaired in their ability to speak or otherwise communicate. Specialized subject testing and training procedures shall be developed to optimize use of this communication prosthesis in appropriate patient populations. Development of signal processing algorithms will be coordinated with researchers supported by the related NIDCD contract award titled, Brain Computer Interface for Communication: Neural Signal Processing and Control of Audiovisual Displays. This is not a Request for Proposals (RFP) and does not commit the Government to award a contract now or in the future. No RFP is available at this time. Small business concerns that believe they possess the capabilities necessary to undertake the work described can request a draft copy of the Statement of Work (SOW) via email at cyrush@od.nih.gov or by calling 301-496-4487. Potential offerors should then submit two (02) copies of their capability statement to the attention of: Howard Cyrus, Contract Specialist, OA/OLAO, via fax number 301-402-0178 or email (preferred) to cyrush@od.nih.gov CAPABILITY STATEMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED NO LATER THAN 2:00 PM EST, OCTOBER 30, 2007. The NAICS Code for this requirement is 541712. Questions should be addressed to the Point of Contact listed in this announcement. NOTE: THIS NOTICE MAY HAVE POSTED ON FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (10-OCT-2007). IT ACTUALLY APPEARED OR REAPPEARED ON THE FEDBIZOPPS SYSTEM ON 18-DEC-2007, BUT REAPPEARED IN THE FTP FEED FOR THIS POSTING DATE. PLEASE CONTACT fbo.support@gsa.gov REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
