Clinic Consortium for HIV Implementation Research and Prevention (CCHIRP)
This is a Request for Information (RFI) to solicit feedback from industry stakeholders. The Government is currently conducting market research in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10 and seeks to understand market capabilities and/or restricvtive barriers which may prevent the industry from meeting agency needs.
Service Description: The Centers for Disease & Control (CDC) and HIV Research Branch (HRB) is proposing the establishment of a Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contract. This contract will support increased PrEP and other HIV prevention measure use by persons in priority populations by issuing individual task orders for conduct of implementation research in healthcare systems and clinical care setting (e.g., academic clinic networks, retail clinic networks, integrated healthcare systems). Research will assess strategies to increase the reach, effectiveness, and efficiency of biomedical HIV preventive care. Biomedical prevention includes PrEP, nPEP, and associated healthcare services such as HIV and STI testing and patient education and support counseling provided in clinical care settings.
Sources that can meet the requirements of this contract are those with demonstrated experience in conducting implementation research, including HIV prevention research. Effective completion of the tasks in this IDIQ will require that the contractor(s) are a healthcare system or clinical practice network such as an academic clinic network, retail clinic network, or integrated healthcare system that provide care to a patient population comprised of at least 50% Black persons..
The CDC and HIV Research Branch aims to refine the requirement so that maximum participation of interested and capable vendors is possible. Please refer to Attachement 1, Statement of Work (draft) and Attachment 2, RFI Response Form.
Government Point of Contact: Vendors may submit their feedback to Mark Wirtz, Contract Specialist, at mag8@cdc.gov no later than 2:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, April 24, 2024 and include “CCHIRP RFI Response” in the subject line. Interested vendors are welcome to provide their capability statements in addition to the RFI responses.

To achieve the goals of the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. and the National HIV/AIDS Strategy to decrease new HIV infections, access to and use of high-quality clinical HIV preventive care services must be increased. CDC guidelines for HIV prevention include routine opt-out HIV testing and more frequent risk-based HIV testing in clinical settings4, and prescribing of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and nonoccupational postexposure prophylaxis (nPEP) for persons who might benefit. However, provision of these services has been suboptimal in the United States and large and worsening disparities exist in PrEP use by Black or African American (Black) men and women and Hispanic or Latino men who have sex with men (MSM). Persons in these populations comprise most new HIV infections each year, and these infections could have been prevented with PrEP use. To increase HIV preventive measures by persons in populations with the greatest need, it is imperative to develop, implement, and evaluate strategies that support healthcare systems and clinical practices to more effectively and efficiently implement HIV testing PrEP and PEP. Effective interventions need to be scaled-up and implemented using strategies found effective and acceptable to both providers and patients in implementation research studies and that can be adapted to varying clinical settings and requirements.
