About this forecast

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) plans to issue a competitive IDIQ/GWAC order for a new evaluation contract supporting its proposed GLOBE and GUARD drug pricing models, with solicitation release estimated for March 15, 2027 and award estimated for May 10, 2027. GLOBE (Global Benchmark for Efficient Drug Pricing) would be a proposed mandatory model assessing rebates on certain Medicare Part B drugs whose prices exceed those paid in economically comparable countries, and GUARD (Guarding U.S. Medicare Against Rising Drug Costs) would apply the same approach to certain Part D drugs. The order is placed under the CMS Research, Measurement, Assessment, Design and Analysis (RMADA) 2 IDIQ, falls under NAICS 541720 with PSC AN42, carries no set-aside, and is managed by CMMI's RRCEG under contracting office 7500-7530-00500.

The estimated award value range is $10 million to $20 million, with the current fiscal year value at least $10 million and less than $20 million, and the contract is cost plus fixed fee with a length greater than 5 years beginning May 10, 2027. Points of contact are John Cruse, Contracting Officer (john.cruse1@cms.hhs.gov, +1 (410) 786-7762), and Caroline Ly (caroline.ly@cms.hhs.gov, +1 (410) 786-8114), both at CMS.
