AIR contract

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is forecasting a recompete of a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for health marketing services, with an estimated award date of February 1, 2025. The contract will focus on professional services related to health communications, strategic messaging, program evaluation, and educational resource development. This multiple-award BPA is not set aside for any specific business category.

The contract point of contact is Tammy Nunnally, a Health Communications Specialist from the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, & TB Prevention, who can be reached at tjn1@cdc.gov. While the current forecast does not specify an exact award value, historical task orders under the existing BPA have ranged from $150,000 to over $20 million, primarily performed in the Arlington, Virginia and Washington, D.C. metro areas. The ultimate completion date for the current contract is September 28, 2025.

The incumbent contractor is the American Institutes for Research in the Behavioral Sciences (AIR), a non-profit research organization that has been executing the current BPA since September 30, 2015 under contract number HHSD2002015M88151B. The existing BPA has enabled CDC to issue multiple task orders for services across health marketing, strategic communications, message testing, environmental scans, program evaluation, and development of educational resources. AIR's expertise in behavioral and social science research has been instrumental in supporting evidence-based policy and practice in public health domains.
