About this vehicle
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion awarded this Master IDIQ on September 27, 2011 for healthcare-associated infections (HAI) prevention research and epidemiology, but ordering closed on September 30, 2016 and is no longer active. A successor vehicle, Safety and Healthcare Epidemiology Prevention Research Development 2016, was established September 23, 2016.
The vehicle is closed to new task-order activity. All 39 awarded delivery orders have been completed or are past their performance windows; the most recent award was September 30, 2016. The vehicle obligated $32.1 million against a combined task-order potential value of $32.2 million, leaving minimal unobligated capacity.
Task orders contracted research and implementation projects on HAI prevention, antimicrobial resistance (AR) surveillance, infection control in outpatient settings, bloodstream infection prevention, and episodic response work (notably Ebola-related epidemiology and testing). A 2015 spike in activity (ten orders) reflected emergency response demand. Orders ranged from token $1,000 placeholder awards to substantive projects exceeding $4 million; notable awards included RFTOP 2015-005 EBOLA ($4.3 million), SHEPHERD 2016-002 RFTOP ($3 million), and SHEPHERD general operations ($3.7 million).
Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Inc. and University of Utah dominate the prime contractor base, holding $13.7 million and $10.7 million in combined potential value respectively across nine and five orders. Health Core, Inc. accounts for $2.6 million across five orders. Three additional firms and a long tail of smaller research organizations split the remainder. The CDC Pittsburgh office placed 38 of 39 orders. All task orders were awarded without set-asides to unrestricted contractors, predominantly academic medical centers and health services research firms.
Prospective contractors should pursue the successor vehicle (SHEPheRD 2016) for ongoing CDC epidemiology and infection-control research work.
Description
