New York State Vaccine Program Supply

The New York State Department of Health is requesting bids for vaccine supply to the Children & Adult programs serving Child Health Plus enrollees, underinsured children, and underinsured and uninsured adults under IFB 20792, with bids due September 10, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. ET. The Department intends to award one or more contracts to ensure all vaccines on the Current CDC Vaccine Price List are covered. There are no MWBE, DBE, or SDVOB contracting goals established for this procurement.

The scope encompasses pediatric and adult vaccines across five primary categories: pediatric VFC vaccines, adult vaccines, pediatric influenza vaccines, adult influenza vaccines, and pediatric and adult COVID-19 vaccines, with specific brand names, National Drug Codes, and packaging configurations detailed in the bid form. Estimated annual order volume based on 2025–2026 shipments is 895,500 doses (848,800 pediatric doses and 58,377 adult doses), with the Department reserving the right to order up to 25 percent above listed volumes. The contract term extends five years beginning April 1, 2027.

Bidders may select from two pricing options per vaccine line item: Option 1 prices vaccines at the Current CDC Vaccine Price List at the time orders are placed, subject to change throughout the five-year term; Option 2 provides a guaranteed price at or below the current CDC list price, fixed for the entire contract term. Bidders may mix both options across vaccine types. All pricing must be based on the CDC Cost/Dose column and include the Federal Excise Tax of $0.75 per disease component. Bidders may elect to provide future vaccines added to the CDC Price List by selecting Option 1, provided they bid on at least one currently listed vaccine.

Written questions are due August 13, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. ET. Responses are anticipated to be posted on or about August 28, 2026. No incumbent is identified for this procurement.
