http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-03-032.html

NIH recognizes that data sharing may be complicated or limited, in some cases, by institutional policies, local IRB rules, as well as local, state and Federal laws and regulations, including the Privacy Rule (see HHS-published documentation on the Privacy Rule at http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/). The rights and privacy of people who participate in NIH-funded research must be protected at all times; thus, data intended for broader use should be free of identifiers that would permit linkages to individual research participants and variables that could lead to deductive disclosure of the identity of individual subjects.

ARTICLE H.19. NIH POLICY ON ENHANCING PUBLIC ACCESS TO ARCHIVED PUBLICATIONS RESULTING FROM NIH-FUNDED RESEARCH

The Policy requests that beginning May 2, 2005, NIH-funded investigators submit to the NIH National Library of Medicine’s (NLM) PubMed Central (PMC) an electronic version of the author’s final manuscript, upon acceptance for publication, resulting from research supported in whole or in part with direct costs from NIH. NIH defines the author’s final manuscript as the final version accepted for journal publication, and includes all modifications from the publishing peer review process. The PMC archive will preserve permanently these manuscripts for use by the public, health care providers, educators, scientists, and NIH. The Policy directs electronic submissions to the NIH/NLM/PMC: http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov.

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options. However, the term does not include contracts that exceed five years in duration because the period of performance has been extended for a cumulative period not to exceed six months under the clause at 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, or other appropriate authority.

(3) For long-term contracts—

(i) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract; and

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the exercise date specified in the contract for any option thereafter.

(c) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code assigned to this contract.

(f) If the Contractor represented that it was other than a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor may, but is not required to, take the actions required by paragraphs (e) or (g) of this clause.

the following rerepresentation and submit it to the contracting office, along with the contract number and the date on which the rerepresentation was completed:

(a) Definition. As used in this clause —

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Wake Island.

(b) Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this clause, during the term of this contract, the Contractor shall post a notice, in the form of a poster, informing employees of their rights concerning union membership and payment of union dues and fees, in conspicuous places in and about all its plants and offices, including all places where notices to employees are customarily posted. The notice shall include the following information (except that the information pertaining to National Labor Relations Board shall not be included in notices posted in the plants or offices of carriers subject to the Railway Labor Act, as amended (45 U.S.C. 151-188)).

Notice to Employees

Under Federal law, employees cannot be required to join a union or maintain membership in a union in order to retain their jobs. Under certain conditions, the law permits a union and an employer to enter into a union-security agreement requiring employees to pay uniform periodic dues and initiation fees. However, employees who are not union members can object to the use of their payments for certain purposes and can only be required to pay their share of union costs relating to collective bargaining, contract administration, and grievance adjustment.

If you do not want to pay that portion of dues or fees used to support activities not related to collective bargaining, contract administration, or grievance adjustment, you are entitled to an appropriate reduction in your payment. If you believe that you have been required to pay dues or fees used in part to support activities not related to collective bargaining, contract administration, or grievance adjustment, you may be entitled to a refund and to an appropriate reduction in future payments.

For further information concerning your rights, you may wish to contact the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) either at one of its Regional offices or at the following address or toll free number:

National Labor Relations Board
Division of Information
1099 14th Street, N.W.

1-866-316-6572 (TTY)
To locate the nearest NLRB office, see NLRB’s website at http://www.nlrb.gov.

(c) The Contractor shall comply with all provisions of Executive Order 13201 of February 17, 2001, and related implementing regulations at 29 CFR part 470, and orders of the Secretary of Labor.

(d) In the event that the Contractor does not comply with any of the requirements set forth in paragraphs (b), (c), or (g), the Secretary may direct that this contract be cancelled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part, and declare the Contractor ineligible for further Government contracts in accordance with procedures at 29 CFR part 470, Subpart B—Compliance Evaluations, Complaint

Contract Number : HHSN272200700060C

Investigations and Enforcement Procedures. Such other sanctions or remedies may be imposed as are provided by 29 CFR part 470, which implements Executive Order 13201, or as are otherwise provided by law.

(e) The requirement to post the employee notice in paragraph (b) does not apply to—

(1) Contractors and subcontractors that employ fewer than 15 persons;

(2) Contractor establishments or construction work sites where no union has been formally recognized by the Contractor or certified as the exclusive bargaining representative of the Contractor’s employees;

(3) Contractor establishments or construction work sites located in a jurisdiction named in the definition of the United States in which the law of that jurisdiction forbids enforcement of union-security agreements;

(4) Contractor facilities where upon the written request of the Contractor, the Department of Labor Deputy Assistant Secretary for Labor-Management Programs has waived the posting requirements with respect to any of the Contractor’s facilities if the Deputy Assistant Secretary finds that the Contractor has demonstrated that—

(i) The facility is in all respects separate and distinct from activities of the Contractor related to the performance of a contract; and

(ii) Such a waiver will not interfere with or impede the effectuation of the Executive order; or

(5) Work outside the United States that does not involve the recruitment or employment of workers within the United States.

(f) The Department of Labor publishes the official employee notice in two variations; one for contractors covered by the Railway Labor Act and a second for all other contractors. The Contractor shall—

(1) Obtain the required employee notice poster from the Division of Interpretations and Standards, Office of Labor-Management Standards, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW, Room N-5605, Washington, DC 2021, or from any field office of the Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards or Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs;

(2) Download a copy of the poster from the Office of Labor-Management Standards website at http://www.olms.dol.gov; or

(3) Reproduce and use exact duplicate copies of the Department of Labor’s official poster.

(g) The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause in every subcontract or purchase order that exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold, entered into in connection with this contract, unless exempted by the Department of Labor Deputy Assistant Secretary for Labor-Management Programs on account of special circumstances in the national interest under authority of 29 CFR 470.3(c). For indefinite quantity subcontracts, the Contractor shall include the substance of this clause if the value of orders in any calendar year of the subcontract is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. Pursuant to 29 CFR part 470, Subpart B—Compliance Evaluations, Complaint Investigations and Enforcement Procedures, the Secretary of Labor may direct the Contractor to take such action in the enforcement of these regulations, including the imposition of sanctions for noncompliance with respect to any such subcontract or purchase order. If the Contractor becomes involved in litigation with a subcontractor or vendor, or is threatened with such involvement, as a result of such direction, the Contractor may request the United States, through the Secretary of Labor, to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.

APPENDIX A to STATEMENT OF WORK

COMPUTER SYSTEMS

BSI-II, LDMS, LIMS, NARDS, and DAIDS-ES

The NIAID may have a necessity within the period of the awarded contract to convert existing systems, databases, and applications to a functionally equivalent and compatible environment.

BSI-II

The BSI-II will be provided to the successful Offeror through a license that the NIAID owns. The BSI-II has the following specifications and minimum hardware/software requirements.

Requirements for the client: PC with 512 MB RAM, 800x600 monitor, 10 MB Disk space, JRE 1.5

Requirements for the transaction server: hi speed multi-processor unix/linux/windows box, JRE 1.5, firewall and backup software

Requirements for the transaction server: Sybase 11.9.2 or Postgres on a multiprocessor box, firewall and backup software.

Requirements for a web server/web services: Apache & Tomcat and associated hardware to run them

Description of the BSI-II System:

The Client, Transaction Server, and Database

The system uses a three-tiered client/server architecture backed by a Sybase SQL database to provide access to information on more than nine million specimens. The first tier is the client which executes on the users local machine, and provides the user interface for the BSI-II system. The client is written in Java and is optimized for the Microsoft Windows environment. The client connects to the second tier, the transaction server, via the Internet. The transaction server is written in non-GUI Java and executes on a Linux machine located at IMS. The transaction server implements the interface between the client and the third tier, the SQL database. For the third tier the BSI-II system uses the Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise SQL database executing on a SPARC station located at IMS inside a firewall. (Note: this will be changing to a Postgres database and Linux during 2005).

Capabilities

The BSI-II client interface is a tabbed panel window consisting of a general information page and the most frequently accessed managers. This main screen includes managers for incoming shipments, data entry, reporting, and requisitions. Each manager is displayed on an individual tab and can be used to launch


Appendix A to Attachment 1, Statement of Work HHSN272200700060C		Attachment 1

multiple editor windows. Once the editor is launched, the user can return to the main window at any time. The main window also has drop-down menus to access other managers and dialogs. The capabilities of the three main editors and other system functions are detailed below.

The incoming shipments editor allows the repository to track new specimens sent to the database, as well as tracking any discrepancies that might exist between the physical shipment and the electronic manifest. Viewing of manifest data and observed data values are permitted. Automatic transfer to data entry batches for committing to the database is supported.

The data entry editor has a spreadsheet interface for entering new and modifying existing data. The editor provides for automatic syntax formatting of data; context sensitive code lists; templates to automate repetitive data entry tasks; data generation; data import; and two levels of data validation. In addition, the BSI Translate program will assist the user in translating data from external systems to the BSI data language. BSI Translate also provides support for label scanning and automatic generation of data.

The system has an extensive reporting capability, and currently supports five types of reports: standard, listing, frequency, requisition, and system reports. All of the reports use the same report editor, a tabbed window where each page is used to collect different information about the report. Reports can be produced in PDF, HTML, CSV, or interactive table format. While there are over 45 standard reports and 20 lab/shipment reports available, the dynamic reports are the most utilized by the current user base.

Requisitions are used to request and track work performed on specimens in the inventory. The work tracked by BSI-II encompasses a wide range of tasks, including: aliquot, re-label, destroy, shipment, return to inventory, and other processes.

There are also modules to provide reservation of sample IDs, user administration, code list management, data entry template management; multi-specimen container (MSC) support; label printing; contact management; as well as views for server locks, system status, and the job queue.

Data transfer from NARDS to BSI-II

A conversion plan and program was written for each of the studies imported from the NARDS database. The database was validated during the transfer to the BSI, with defined checkpoints. An analysis of the data was performed and the transferred data were deemed acceptable prior to use of the data in the BSI.

LDMS and LIMS

Most, but not all, Sites are currently linked through an electronic network which is used to manage specimens and/or generate data from the Sites to a remote Central Database. The MACS, WIHS, HPTN, HVTN (international Sites) and WITS sites are also using a customized laboratory data management system (LDMS) that tracks specimens, provides assay templates, calculates derived quantities, produces reports, creates barcoded labels


Appendix A to Attachment 1, Statement of Work HHSN272200700060C		Attachment 1

with a unique identifier, and generates data files for export from the Site. The domestic HVTN Sites are utilizing a different, customized laboratory information management system (LIMS) that performs the same tasks as the LDMS. The LIMS software is developed by LabWare, Inc (www.labware ) and maintained by a group that includes HVTN, LabWare, Inc, and other commercial consultant representatives.

The Central Database for the MACS and WIHS is maintained by the Data Management and Statistical Center (DMSC) at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health and the LDMS is maintained and updated by the Frontier Science Foundation (www.fstrf.org). The Central Database for the HVTN and HPTN is maintained by the DMSC located at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington (www.fhcrc.org). The Central Database for the WITS is maintained by the DMSC located at Clinical Trials and Surveys Corporation (C-TASC; www.c-tasc.com). Specimen data acquired by all Sites for the NSR are currently generated by the Sites through an electronic manifest that is sent directly to the Contractor.

NARDS

The NARDS database was utilized during previous NIAID Repository contracts held prior to September 1999. The NARDS data set is currently stored as a SAS database. It includes 12 tables for inventory, aliquots, withdraws, deletes, etc. Beyond September 1999, the NARDS data set has only been utilized to confirm that the data transfer was correct (performed at the time the current contract was awarded in September 1999).

Division of AIDS — Enterprise System (DAIDS-ES)

The successful Offeror may be required to provide some NSR-related information through the DAIDS-ES. While some of this may be accomplished through a link from DAIDS-ES to the NSR web site, some data may need to be shared by the NSR, with DAIDS-ES, in which case data sharing agreements, standards, etc., will be required.

The DAIDS-ES is a comprehensive system that supports the business functions, management and oversight responsibilities of the Division of AIDS. The current components of the DAIDS-ES include:

DAIDS Master Contact System

The DAIDS Master Contact System is a centralized system for all address and contact information for stakeholders engaged in clinical research, such as investigators, participating institutions, laboratories, agencies, pharmaceutical sponsors, manufacturers, etc.

DAIDS Expedited Adverse Event Reporting System (DAERS)

The DAERS is a web-based application for expedited reporting of adverse events in DAIDS-sponsored clinical trials. DAERS is a 21 CFR Part 11 compliant system for use in therapeutic, vaccine and prevention trials.

DAIDS Protocol Management System



Appendix A to Attachment 1, Statement of Work HHSN272200700060C		Attachment 1

The DAIDS Protocol Management System supports end-to-end clinical trials processes, including: protocol development, registration, conduct, accrual, oversight, site monitoring, tracking and closeout. The system is CDISC and HL7 compliant with full auditing capabilities.

Successful Offerors may be required to interface, integrate or adapt their information system(s) to interact with these and future components of the DAIDS-ES, as necessary.

To achieve compatibility, DAIDS and its collaborators (contractors, cooperative agreement holders, grantees, etc.) will implement applications or data exchange mechanisms using platform technology standards such as: Web Services, eXtensible Markup Language (XML), XML Schema Definitions (XSD), RDBMS, .NET Framework, UDDI, IIS, Internet Explorer, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Design Patterns, Frameworks and Templates as defined by the DAIDS-ES. Collaborators shall adhere to these guidelines and standards on a continual basis.

This requirement will include the need to utilize DAIDS-ES-specified software Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) or XML and XSD, where appropriate, in all relevant applications that affect specific types of transactions, Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) and other software-based tasks that interact with or become part of the DAIDS-ES.

Depending upon the architecture and implementation of Offerors’ data management system(s), the following activities may be required to be compatible with the DAIDS-ES:

Build Interface:

Using DAIDS-ES-specified data standards, collaborators shall provide access to data in their local system(s). Standards shall either be industry data exchange standards such as those specified by NIH, CDISC, HL7 or adapted versions of these as defined by DAIDS.

System Adaptation:

Collaborators may need to adapt or modify their data management system(s) to receive and store data from the DAIDS-ES. For example, DAIDS is establishing a standardized naming and numbering convention for its awardee institutions. The DAIDS shall provide collaborators with a single set of institution or laboratory names and identifiers for all of its research participants. Collaborator’s data system(s) may have to be adapted or modified to accommodate the DAIDS standard(s).

System Integration:

Collaborators may be required to dynamically obtain data from the DAIDS-ES to perform specific job functions. This will require the integration of collaborator’s system(s) with the DAIDS-ES via data linkages using the appropriate latency factor or through Web Services. For example, the DAIDS-ES will serve as the central repository for investigator and protocol status information. Collaborators whose work requires information from the DAIDS-ES must dynamically integrate it into their respective data system(s).
