About this vehicle
CDC Pittsburgh awarded this Master IDIQ on January 1, 2019, for library support services and electronic access to reference materials, with ordering closed on December 30, 2022—this vehicle is no longer active for new task orders.
The IDIQ is in terminal decline. Ordering momentum has dropped sharply: 11 task orders in 2018, 8 in 2019, 8 in 2020, 5 in 2021, and only 2 in 2022. The 34 total task orders placed over the vehicle's life have obligated $16.1 million against a combined potential value of $19.7 million (81% obligated). Individual delivery orders range from roughly $20,000 to $3.3 million in potential ceiling value, with most running annual subscription cycles. Most task orders use fixed-price economic price adjustment pricing; performance periods cluster around 12-month intervals ending on calendar years.
Prenax Inc. dominates the vehicle, holding 9 of 34 orders and $11 million of the $19.7 million combined potential value—more than half the total value. Cox Subscriptions, Inc. ranks second with 10 orders but only $4.8 million combined value. Ebsco Industries Inc. and LM Information Delivery Inc. hold 8 and 7 orders respectively, with $1.7 million and $2.3 million combined values. All 34 orders fund CDC Pittsburgh library operations; no other federal agency placed orders under this vehicle.
The work is entirely unrestricted—all 34 task orders carry no set-aside designation. Task order descriptions consistently reference "library subscriptions" and "books and periodicals," indicating the vehicle procures access to reference databases and publications supporting epidemiological research and public health information dissemination within the Office of Epidemiology, Analysis and Library Services.
This vehicle presents no pursuit opportunity; ordering authority expired more than three years ago and the customer has made no awards since December 31, 2022. Watch for a successor vehicle if CDC Pittsburgh plans to continue library subscriptions under a new contract.
