Crash Investigation Sampling System

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is seeking a vendor to provide a crash investigation sampling system that delivers nationally representative, real-world crash data. This data will support vehicle safety research, policy development, rulemaking, and the evaluation of safety technologies and programs. The agency needs to solve the ongoing challenge of maintaining high-quality, standardized data collection to inform national safety decisions. The scope of work covers the continued collection, processing, and quality assurance of crash investigation data across the national Primary Sampling Unit network. The agency requires the selected vendor to perform all work offsite at the vendor's own office location. Only organizations based onshore within the United States are eligible to compete for this contract. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost and structure of the project, though specific budget limits and key dates are not detailed in the initial solicitation. Evaluation of proposals will depend on the bidder's ability to successfully manage the national data collection network and ensure data quality.
