About this vehicle

The CDC Office of Acquisition Services awarded this Master IDIQ for clinical immunization safety assessment and vaccine safety research on September 24, 2012, but ordering closed on March 4, 2023, making this vehicle inactive for new task orders. The vehicle is not available for pursuit.

The CISA contract procured clinical case reviews and evaluation of vaccine safety issues along with research studies to advance vaccine safety knowledge and inform clinical and public health practice. Seven academic medical centers and hospital systems held prime awards, with Duke University dominating by order count (22 orders, $18.5 million combined potential value) and The Vanderbilt University leading by combined potential value ($15.1 million across 6 orders). Duke and Vanderbilt together held roughly 54% of the $62.1 million combined potential value; Children's Hospital Medical Center (15 orders, $12.1 million) ranked third. The remaining two primes each held 8 orders. All 78 task orders awarded under the vehicle carried no set-aside designation.

Roughly 94% of the $58.3 million in combined potential value funded CDC Pittsburgh programs, with the remainder supporting CDC Office of Acquisition Services work. Task orders ranged from $10,000 pilot awards to mega-orders exceeding $2 million, with most COVID-19–related orders (marked with Coronavirus COVID-19 national interest action codes) clustered in 2020 and 2022. Pricing included cost-no-fee, firm-fixed-price, and cost-plus-incentive arrangements. Of the $62.1 million combined potential value, $49.1 million (79%) had been obligated by the time the vehicle closed. The most recent task order award date was September 29, 2022. Ordering momentum peaked at 12 orders in 2017 before declining to 3–4 annually in 2018 and 2021, then rebounding to 11 orders in 2022 before the ordering period ended.

Description

The two main requirements for the CISA project include: 1) Clinical case reviews and evaluation of vaccine safety issues, and coordination activities to support this function. 2) Research studies to advance knowledge of vaccine safety and inform clinical and public health practice.
