About this award
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) renewed its sole-source license agreement with First Databank Inc. (doing business as Hearst FDB) for continued access to the National Drug Data File (NDDF) and related pharmaceutical data services. Awarded on July 15, 2024, this firm fixed-price purchase order is valued at $128,140 and extends through July 14, 2025. First Databank, a subsidiary of The Hearst Corporation and established provider of drug and medical device data solutions, was selected as the sole source under FAR 6.301-1 authority, as the NDDF data is uniquely available only from this vendor. The contract contains no small business set-aside designation and reflects CMS's critical dependency on First Databank's specialized pharmaceutical databases to support Medicare and Medicaid program operations and research initiatives.
The license provides CMS with electronic delivery of comprehensive drug pricing, descriptive, and clinical decision support data essential for Medicare Part D claims processing, drug program administration, and healthcare research. First Databank's databases, including the National Drug Data File, RxNorm Cross Reference Module, and National Drug Codes (NDCs), serve as foundational data infrastructure for federal healthcare programs. This renewal continues the incumbent contractor relationship and follows a May 2024 solicitation in which CMS requested proposals for the identical data files. The performance location is identified as South San Francisco, California, though the original solicitation referenced Maryland locations, indicating potential operational flexibility in First Databank's service delivery model.
