Jason Fine

Jason Fine, operating as the Jason P Fine Division, is a sole proprietor and self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Wakefield, Massachusetts, providing specialized statistical methodology development and software engineering for cancer surveillance research to the National Cancer Institute as a prime contractor. All six awards in the source record are single-agency prime awards with no subcontract footprint; the vendor competes exclusively under full-and-open procurements, with no set-aside usage except where the buying agency designated total small business set-asides.

Jason Fine's entire customer base and award portfolio concentrates with the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance Research Program (DCCPS SEER). The vendor has performed four consecutive years of related work since 2022, developing and extending parametric and continuous-time competing risks survival models using two-time-scale methodology — one scale measuring age for non-cancer mortality, the other measuring time since cancer diagnosis. The most recent award, issued September 29, 2026, provided $37,800 to develop prediction error measures for competing risks models, including R or SAS software compliant with CRAN standards and Section 508 accessibility requirements, with a sole-source justification citing unique capability. Prior awards include a $44,800 contract (August 2024) and a $24,700 contract (August 2023) for methodology extension work under small business set-aside, and a $24,750 contract (September 2022) for development of parametric models. Combined potential value across all six awards is $181 thousand, with $162 thousand obligated to date.

Activity is sparse and episodic — one award per year in 2021 through 2024, with a gap, then one in 2026 — but shows continuity of relationship rather than growth trajectory. One award ($37,800) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and faces recompete exposure. The vendor's work falls under NAICS 541712 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services) and PSC Support-Professional: Other, reflecting specialized technical consulting rather than broad service delivery. Work is performed in Wakefield, Massachusetts; all deliverables are federal research outputs (methodology documentation, software, publications) rather than operational service provision.
