The Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) intends to award a sole source contract under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 (One source) to Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) for research and development support services in support of a study to investigate the effects of elevated work of breathing combined with intermittent periods of reduced oxygen on pilot physiology and performance. The Government`s requirement is for collaboration with a broader research team to assist with data collection for an effort investigating the effects of breathing resistance and intermittent hypoxia on human physiology and cognition. The contractor will help with site preparation, subject recruiting, data collection, data management, data analysis, and preparation of reports/manuscripts. This will be a combined research effort between Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton (NAMRU-D) and the contract awardee.
To facilitate the accomplishment of these tasks, the supporting entity must:
1. Be located within 50 miles of a T-45 or similar fixed-wing training squadron to facilitate access for subjects
2. Have access to a population of student, instructor, or other active duty fixed-wing pilots
3. Have staff with a background in human subjects research
4. Have staff with relevant expertise studying hypoxia, cognitive performance, and/or respiratory physiology
5. Have staff with expertise in data analysis and reporting
6. Have staff with knowledge of institutional review board (IRB) regulations and requirements, including use and storage of data
7. Have a Reduced Oxygen Breathing Device (ROBD) or other normobaric capability that can simultaneously alter work of breathi...
