Period of performance of this contract is: April 11, 2026 to April 10, 2027 Base Period: April 11, 2026 to April 10, 2027

SECTION 1 – BACKGROUND

In 1960, the National Office of Vital Statistics and the National Health Survey merged to form the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). NCHS is one of 13 principal statistical agencies in the federal government. NCHS has been in a number of organizations within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and since 1987 has been part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Collaborating with other public and private health partners, NCHS employs a variety of data collection mechanisms to obtain accurate information from multiple sources. The process provides a broad perspective to help NCHS collect data from birth and death records, medical records, interview surveys, and through direct physical examinations and laboratory testing.

Our nation’s health statistics enables NCHS to:

• Document the health status of the population and important population subgroups.

• Identify disparities in health status and the use of health care by race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, region, and other population and geographic characteristics.

• Describe patient, parent/guardian, and provider experiences with the health care system.

• Monitor trends in health status and health care delivery.

• Identify health problems.

• Support epidemiologic, biomedical, and health services research.

• Provide information to monitor health indicators.

• Provide data to support and evaluate the impact of public health policies and programs, such as recent data on opioid overdose deaths.

NCHS is a key element of our national public infrastructure, providing important surveillance information that helps identify and address critical health problems.

FAR 42.1502 and 42.1503 requires agencies to prepare evaluations of contractor performance and submit them to the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). CDC utilizes this web-based system to prepare and report contractor performance evaluations. All information contained in these assessments may be used by the Government, within the limitations of FAR 42.15, for future source selections in accordance with FAR 15.304 where past performance is an evaluation factor.

The CPARS system requires a contractor representative to be assigned so that the contractor has appropriate input into the performance evaluation process. The CPARS contractor representative will be given access to CPARS and will be given the opportunity to concur or not-concur with performance evaluations before the evaluations are complete. The CPARS contractor representative will also have the opportunity to add comments to performance evaluations.

The assessment is not subject to the Disputes clause of the contract, nor is it subject to appeal beyond the review and comment procedures described in the guides on the CPARS website. Refer to: www.cpars.gov for details and additional information related to CPARS, CPARS user access, how contract performance assessments are conducted, and how contractors participate. Access and training for all persons responsible for the preparation and review of performance assessments is also available at the CPARS website.

The contractor must provide the CDC contracting office with the name, e-mail address, and phone number of their designated CPARS representative who will be responsible for logging into CPARS and reviewing and commenting on performance evaluations. The contractor must maintain a current representative to serve as the contractor representative in CPARS. It is the contractor’s responsibility to notify the CDC contracting office, in writing (letter or email), when their CPARS representative information needs to be changed or updated. Failure to maintain current CPARS contractor representative information will result in the loss of an opportunity to review and comment on performance evaluations.

FAR 42.1502 and 42.1503 requires agencies to prepare evaluations of contractor performance and submit them to the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). CDC utilizes this web-based system to prepare and report contractor performance evaluations. All information contained in these assessments may be used by the Government, within the limitations of FAR 42.15, for future source selections in accordance with FAR 15.304 where past performance is an evaluation factor.
