SECTION B - CONTINUATION OF SF1449

1. Background Statement.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award one or more Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts for the purchase of standard commercial adult vaccines. The establishment of these contracts provides an opportunity to utilize Section 317 vaccine purchase funds to obtain vaccines at prices below those available in the commercial market place. These funds provide vaccines for state and local health departments to use in populations at greatest risk for under vaccination and disease.

The 317 program, as established under Section 317(j) of the Public Health Service Act, works to ensure that adults receive appropriate immunization by partnering with healthcare providers in the public and private sectors. The program helps assure the implementation of effective immunization practices and proper use of vaccines to achieve higher immunization coverage. The vaccines awarded under these contracts will be purchased for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease's (NCIRD’s) immunization Awardees (the fifty state health departments, several large city programs and current and former U.S. Territories) to support adult immunization programs as provided under Section 317(j) of the Public Health Service Act. In addition, awardees may opt to purchase additional quantities of vaccine for adults under any resulting contract using state and local funds.

1. Definitions.

1. 317 Orders – Vaccine orders under Section 317(j) of the Public Health Service Act.

1. State and Local Orders – Vaccine orders placed by authorized immunization programs using state or local funds in accordance with Section 1928(d)(4)(B) of the Social Security Act.

1. Awardees – Includes State health departments and certain local health agencies authorized to order hereunder.

1. Type of Contract.

Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) with Firm-Fixed Price Delivery Orders.

B.4 Fair Opportunity Process for CDC-placed Orders

In accordance with FAR 16.505(a)(6), orders under an IDIQ may be placed using any medium specified in the contract as long as it addresses the requirements of 16.505(a)(7). Delivery Orders for vaccines shall be placed by Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the Vaccine Tracking System (VTrckS). A formal request for delivery order proposal will not occur at the delivery order level or issued on an OF347.

In accordance with 16.505(b)(1) and the broad discretion afforded in developing appropriate order placement procedures [16.505(b)(1)(ii)], delivery orders for vaccines will be placed using a fair opportunity process, which uses the following factors:

1. The vaccines and presentations identified by awardees and healthcare providers as clinically appropriate for their patients;

1. recommendations by state-level medical vaccine advisory committees;

1. and the level of federal and state vaccine funding available to each jurisdiction which incorporates the established IDIQ vaccine prices in the delivery order decision.

B.5 Estimated Contract Value.

The total estimated value of this contract is $___________. The minimum guarantee is 100 doses per vaccine and $________. The initial funded amount of this contract is $________, which represents the Government’s maximum potential liability if delivery orders are executed in VTrckS for the full funded amount. Funds for unplaced delivery orders may be de-obligated unilaterally by the Government.

Contractors are advised that the maximum quantity represents their commitment to the CDC under their contract.

c. Delivery Orders shipments:

1. Shipments shall be sent with all transaction information necessary to be compliant with applicable Drug Supply Chain Security Act requirements including Transaction Information (TI), Transaction History (TH), and Transaction Statement (TS).

The procedure for making such changes to the contract shall be as follows:

(1) The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer within 10 business days of the effective date of the establishment of the FCP which is lower than the contract unit price; any price reduction to be applied after a new FCP is established shall be retroactive to the date the new FCP is established. Contractors shall provide a credit if necessary, for any orders placed prior to establishment of the new FCP at a higher price.

(2) The Contracting Officer shall issue a bilateral modification upon receipt of this notification.
