OS AI has received several inquiries of late tied to market research efforts the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently launched related to the next iteration of a contract to provide software engineering, IT support, systems analysis and testing, data management, biostatistical analysis, public health analysis, and user support for the CDC’s National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), whose stated mission is to confront the root causes of the nation’s most prevalent infectious diseases by improving care and treatment access for the most marginalized persons.
The primary focus for this informatics support contract will center around providing a range of data and informatics support activities to the Communications, Surveillance Activities, Laboratory Branch activities, and Tuberculosis Trials Consortium and Epidemiologic Studies, within the NCHHSTP Division of TB Elimination (DTBE) offices, including the Communications, Education, and Behavioral Studies Branch (CEBSB), the Data Management, Statistics & Evaluation Branch (DMSEB), the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and Outbreak Investigations Branch (SEOIB), and the Clinical Research Branch (CRB).
While there was no specific mention of an incumbent contract or transition period by CDC, this contract does appear as if it will take on responsibilities held by an incumbent. GDIT, who was awarded a 5-year $24M NCHHSTP Informatics Technical Support in 2020 is certain to receive its fair share of partner inquiries. Details related to that CIO-SP3 task, which appears set to blow through its ceiling early, can be found here. Any final acquisition strategy will be informed by the market research CDC conducts, but two things you can expect are that this contract, like nearly all CDC awards, will be competed through a GSA contract (Alliant 2, OASIS and MAS were specifically named as possibilities), and that small businesses and large businesses alike will be working to influence the direction of any forthcoming competition (set-aside, contract vehicles, SIN, etc). Several key points of contact, related data and partner options are included below.
Sample Key Points of Contact (Current or Past)
- Liubov Kriel, Contracting Officer, CDC
- Dave Wilson, Deputy Chief, DTBE Data Management, Statistics, and Evaluation Branch, CDC
