Importance: This is a key element of the contract because the individual delivering the contract will be responsible for training and mentoring our teams. Experience in this area allows us to differentiate standard advice such as communication is key to much more useful advice about specific challenges facing research teams such as how to structure studies to be supported by the peer review process or addressing other challenges unique to research teams. Writing Effectiveness: Contractor should provide samples of writing and communication similar to what will be used on this project. Samples should demonstrate writing that is clearly understood and followed by the intended audience. Importance: Much technical writing is filled with jargon and very hard to decipher, even by the experts for whom it is intended. We are looking for someone who has the capacity to take highly technical subjects and processes and communicate those in a way that is accessible to the intended audience. This means that the reader can understand and apply the topic in one read, and easily refer back as needed. Demonstrated experience using and developing one of the most commonly used frameworks in implementation science, the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Contractor must be able to co-author a successfully published peer-reviewed manuscript that describes development of the updated Version 2 of the CFIR. Grant-Funded Research Experience: Contractor should be able to demonstrate knowledge of, and experience working with a variety of grant funded research projects. Contractor should outline positive outcomes from work with comparable projects. Importance: All of our research is funded through grants, which must go through an award process. We are looking for someone who has experience navigating and receiving similar grants to what we use as our primary source of funding.
