This document outlines a Request for Information (RFI) related to a federal project, asking vendors to submit a capabilities statement not exceeding 10 pages by December 30, 2024. Vendor submissions should address specific questions in Appendix A, which cover organizational experience, technical capabilities, relevant past performance, existing government contracts, and subcontracting opportunities. Additionally, feedback on the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS) and insights into innovative industry practices are solicited in Appendix B, although responses to these items do not count toward the page limit. The goal of this RFI is to gather information that will assist the government in shaping future procurement strategies and evaluations, particularly in supporting Small Business Participation goals. The structured approach aims to ensure vendors provide detailed and relevant information pertinent to the project requirements outlined in the draft PWS.

The United States Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC) has issued a Draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) soliciting proposals for an Intellectual Property (IP) and Technology Transfer (T2) Database and Related Services. This initiative aims to support the patenting and licensing of government-invented technologies. The selected contractor will provide an on-premises commercial docketing system designed to manage IP agreements, track compliance deadlines, and generate reports. Key requirements include a flexible software solution capable of supporting multiple users, periodic updates, and robust customer support. The contract will have a base period of 12 months, with options for 24 additional months, and will require adherence to DoD security protocols. Specific tasks include obtaining necessary authorizations, implementing and testing the system, performing data audits, and providing user training. The contractor will also develop an Outgoing Transition Plan for future data migration to another system. This RFP showcases the government’s commitment to efficiently managing and protecting its intellectual property assets while facilitating technology transfer. Ensuring compliance with federal regulations and maintaining high operational standards are critical components of this undertaking.
