Maryland Department Of Health

Maryland Department of Health Vital Statistics Administration Division, doing business as Vital Statistics Administration, is a state government entity that operates as a prime contractor (100% of awards) providing vital statistics data collection, death records management, and enumeration services to federal agencies on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations. The division is a child entity of the State of Maryland, headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, and specializes in maintaining and reporting birth and death records that support national public health surveillance and federal demographic programs.

The Vital Statistics Administration's federal work centers on concrete data collection and records management: vital statistics collection and reporting for public health surveillance, electronic death records (EDR) services, enumeration at birth (EAB) with race and ethnicity records, and National Death Index (NDI) data maintenance. Representative work includes a $406,608 delivery order from the CDC Pittsburgh division for the Vital Statistics Collection Program Maryland (awarded April 14, 2026, extending through May 2027), a $2.3 million electronic death records contract with the Social Security Administration (awarded December 27, 2023, ultimate completion December 26, 2028), and a $2.7 million Social Security Administration purchase order for enumeration at birth and race and ethnicity records from Maryland (awarded June 28, 2024, extending through June 28, 2027).

Customer concentration is heavily federal, with the top four agencies accounting for 80% of recent awards by count. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Pittsburgh division leads with 34 awards and $23.7 million in combined potential value, followed by the Social Security Administration with 31 awards and $10.9 million. The CDC Office of Acquisition Services accounts for 8 awards valued at $7.7 million, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services holds 24 awards. The division works across five primary parent vehicles: a Basic Ordering Agreement with HHS (9 task orders, $2.2 million), an Indefinite Delivery Contract with Social Security Administration (8 task orders, $204 thousand), and three additional SSA IDCs ranging from $418 thousand to $1.1 million across seven to eight task orders each.

Activity has declined in recent years, with three awards in 2022 declining to one award in 2026. Over the full tracked period, the division has received 124 awards with a combined potential value of $43.8 million (though obligated dollars total $55 million, reflecting favorable contract execution relative to ceilings). Work is categorized primarily under NAICS 511922 (Administration of Public Health Programs, 42 awards) and 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, and Related Services, 36 awards), with PSC codes split between administrative information retrieval support and data collection management. Only two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal near-term recompete exposure for this customer base.
