The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) awarded a $358,440.00 firm fixed price purchase order to the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) to collect data on consumer product-related injuries. This contract is not set aside for small businesses.
The contract was issued under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, which allows for sole source awards when only one responsible source is available. CPSC selected UMMC randomly through a computer program to provide data reports on consumer product injuries, as the agency believes only randomly selected hospitals can fulfill this requirement. The data collected will be used for statistical analysis purposes. This contract is not associated with a larger contract vehicle. UMMC, as a major academic medical center and the only Level 1 trauma center in Mississippi, has significant expertise in supporting federal healthcare and research initiatives through contracts and grants with agencies like the Department of Veterans Affairs, National Institutes of Health, and Department of Defense.
