This is a follow-on purchase of a GXP software program currently used by the Vaccine Immunology Program (VIP), aids the Vaccine Research Center (VRC) to perform comprehensive statistical modeling of data for experiments. This request is to secure a renewal and upgrade for a GXP Software bundle package. This package includes analytical software for performing testing. The purpose of the procurement is for the vendor to provide one (1) software package of SMP version 7.1.1 or higher.
