ATSDR Public Health Assessment Activities

CDC Pittsburgh established this Master IDIQ on August 6, 2018, to procure scientific, technical, expert, and logistical services for ATSDR public health assessment activities, with a shared ceiling of $30 million and a last date to order of July 30, 2023—the vehicle is no longer accepting new orders. Ordering closed in 2023 and this vehicle is inactive; no new task orders have been issued since September 2021. The originating solicitation was issued as a Total Small Business set-aside, though the subsequent vehicle and all task orders show no set-aside designations applied.

Only one customer agency—CDC Pittsburgh itself—placed all 31 task orders over the vehicle's life. The most recent activity occurred in September 2021, with task-order issuances declining from a peak of 10 orders in both 2019 and 2020 to 7 in 2021 and none thereafter.

Eastern Research Group Inc. dominates the prime contractor base by order count with 25 awards totaling $7.5 million in combined potential value. ABT Global LLC holds only 3 orders but accounts for $17.5 million—the largest share of potential value. Tetra Tech, Inc. was awarded 3 orders totaling $334 thousand. Combined task-order potential value reached $25.4 million, with $22.7 million obligated (89% of combined potential).

Task orders ranged from approximately $46 thousand to $10.6 million in ceiling value, with pricing structured across Firm Fixed Price, Time and Materials, and Labor Hours arrangements. Representative orders included a $10.6 million ceiling order for general public health assessment activities (obligated $8 million) and a $5.2 million order for public health assessment activities. Smaller specialized efforts included the Camp Lejeune investigation ($889 thousand) and topical studies addressing organic waste emissions, compliance tools, and technical assistance to ATSDR.

Because the vehicle's last date to order passed in July 2023 and no task orders have been issued in over four years, this vehicle is not open for pursuit.

The Public Health Support Services for ATSDR Public Health Assessment Activities Master IDIQ is intended to facilitate the procurement of regularly and repeatedly scientific, technical, expert, and logistical services (e.g. outreach and education services) for ATSDR in support of its public health mission with regards to public health assessment activities such as, but not limited to, public health assessments, public health consultations, exposure investigations, biomonitoring activities, health studies, training, and related outreach, education, and evaluation activities.
