CONTRACT ??????????

[/bOn October 16, the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) of the U.S. government issued a Task Order Request to three pre-existing BARDA contractors, public-private consortia referred to as Centers for Innovation in Advanced Development and Manufacturing, for the procurement of a specified experimental Ebola therapeutic known as ZMapp(TM) made in Nicotiana plants. The submission deadline is November 10. None of the three consortia appears to have a plant-made pharmaceutical (PMP) technology or facility to produce significant quantities of the ZMapp experimental product in plants, so it is expected that the consortia interested to be involved will contract with PMP-capable parties in order to satisfy BARDA's requirements.
