International Technical Operational and Professional Support Services II (ITOPSS II)

The CDC Office of Acquisition Services awarded this Master IDIQ for International Technical, Operational, and Professional Support Services (ITOPSS II) supporting PEPFAR programs globally, with ordering closed September 14, 2016. The vehicle is no longer active; the last task order was issued March 15, 2017, and the vehicle has been superseded by ITOPSS III, awarded January 26, 2018.

Only two prime contractors hold all 49 awarded task orders under this vehicle. The QED Group LLC dominates by combined potential value at $542.2 million across 20 orders, while Comforce Technical Services, Inc. holds 29 orders valued at $178 million combined. The combined task-order potential value is $720.3 million, though only $90 million (13% of potential) has been obligated, reflecting the gap between task-order ceilings and actual spending draw-down. Ordering momentum concentrated heavily in 2012, when 41 of 49 orders were issued; subsequent years saw minimal activity (three orders in 2013, two each in 2014 and 2015, one in 2017).

Work performed worldwide across Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean, with significant concentration in Tanzania, Botswana, Vietnam, Rwanda, and Nigeria. Task orders fund public health surveillance, laboratory services, epidemiology support, HIV/AIDS treatment coordination, facilities project management, Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP) advisory services, and professional consulting across CDC field offices. Orders are priced as cost-plus-fixed-fee with task-order ceilings ranging from under $200,000 to over $100 million, though obligated amounts typically track well below ceiling values. Notably, three orders carry ceiling values exceeding $40 million: one to support polio eradication in Pakistan ($100.9 million ceiling), one for Nigeria field services ($51.5 million ceiling), and one for Vietnam multiple services ($218.9 million ceiling).

Funding splits between CDC Pittsburgh (roughly 76% of combined potential value across 30 orders) and CDC Office of Acquisition Services (roughly 24% across 19 orders). All task orders are unrestricted; no set-asides apply.
