A--NIH NeuroBioBank Brain and Tissue Repository 75N95024R00124
Summary
AI-generated · Nov 22, 2025Procure and operate the NIH NeuroBioBank Brain and Tissue Repository, covering the accrual of brain specimens, ongoing maintenance, data management, storage, and distribution of the tissues. Because the scope and costs are uncertain and precise specifications are not available, a cost-reimbursement contract is used instead of a fixed-price arrangement.
Six separate awards were issued to six institutions to perform these activities under cost-reimbursement contracts, all on the same date, for a total of roughly $148 million. Awardees include The McLean Hospital Corporation; University of Maryland, Baltimore; Greater Los Angeles Veterans Research and Education Foundation; University of Miami; University of Pittsburgh (Commonwealth System of Higher Education); and Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
Due to the complexity and nature of this requirement, the extent of specimen accrual, maintenance, data management, storage and distribution of the brain tissues is unknown. As a result, uncertainties involved in contract performance do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use any type of fixed-price contract. Therefore, a cost reimbursement type contract was used for this acquisition due to the absence of precise specifications and difficulties in estimating costs with accuracy.
