Based on market research (including sources sought HHS-NIH-OD-OLAO-SS-19-004), Scholastic is the only service provider that meets NIGMS's need for creating and disseminating science education materials to middle and high school classrooms nationwide.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), Office of Communication and Public Liaison (OCPL) informs the general public and targeted audiences about NIGMS-supported research and training programs. OCPL works to strengthen public understand and appreciation of basic biomedical science, and to inspire the pursuit of careers in basic biomedical research. The office publishes free science education materials including fact sheets, publications, and digital media on a range of topics. The Office also informs teachers and students about NIGMS funded training programs and products, such as materials resulting from Science Education Partnership Awards (SEPA), grants that may be useful to teachers and students across the country.



NIGMS seeks to reach millions of middle and high school science students in all 50 states and with a broad demographic mix (i.e. urban, suburban, rural, etc.) annually, through articles in Science World, a Scholastic, Inc. magazine, and a dedicated website. The Institute seeks to utilize Scholastic's expertise in engaging students and meeting the needs of classroom teachers. The Institute also seeks to utilize Scholastic's expertise working with government and corporate partners to meet the needs of classroom teachers. The primary objective of this project is the development, manufacturing, distribution, and marketing of educational print and online materials that nearly 2.5 million school students read as part of their in-classroom educational experience. Services to be performed include: creating, maintaining and updating a project website; manufacturing and distributing print educational materials; and promoting and tracking the reach and usage of materials.
