A11- Notice of Intent to Sole Source.pdf

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to WebMD Health Corp. for the Recertification of an existing Continuing Medical Education (CME) activity. The purpose of the project is to recertify “Diagnosis and Management of West Nile Virus (WNV) Infection: A Case- Based Approach,” a continuing education (CE). Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, as WebMD Health Corp, Medscape Education already has the module developed with the pertinent information regarding the WNV CME materials. We therefore conclude that the only vendor option for the service contract is WebMD Health Corp. This contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals.

A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Any quotation/response should be emailed to contract specialist Ashley Williams at dal3@cdc.gov by 12:00 PM EST on June 19, 2024.
