- Description
- To Whom It May Concern: Reference: Request for Information (RFI) -- National Ordering and Vaccine Distribution System The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is seeking information related to a new approach to vaccine ordering and distribution for the National Immunization Program (NIP). Background The NIP distributes over 60 million doses of publicly funded vaccine through 64 immunization grantee projects per year. This accounts for nearly 60% of all of the pediatric vaccine used in the United States. As such, it is a key public health program for the nation, supported and overseen by the CDC NIP. The program has been a success over the years? consistently raising provider enrollment in the Vaccine for Children (VFC) program, increasing access for eligible children, and working to improve national immunization levels. However, the current distribution and ordering processes are decentralized and non-standardized, resulting in a number of challenges for management of the program. In response to the need for improved efficiency and to better oversee and utilize public health resources, a consolidated national ordering and distribution model is being considered. Please see the attachments for the actual Request for Information (RFI)letter, the draft statement of work (SOW), and the response sheet.
