- Description
- The Health Resources and Services Administration intends to negotiate on a SOLE SOURCE basis with the American Association of Poison Control Centers, 3201 New Mexico Ave., NW, Ste 330, Washington, DC 20016. The purpose of the contract is to Continue Management of the Poison Control Center Toll Free Telephone Number. The toll-free number was established in 2002 and a national campaign was implemented to educate the public about the number. This number has become identifiable across the country as the means by which a PCC can be reached. Approximately 50 percent of calls going to PCCs come through the toll-free number. This contract will be a sole-source award to the American Association for Poison Control Centers because they established, own, and manage the 1-800 number. The anticipated period of performance is for a one-year base and two one-year options. The statutory authority is 41USC 254 (c)(1), only one responsible source, and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. A Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition has been prepared by the Government. This notice of intent is for informational purposes only, and is not a request for competitive proposals. See Numbered Note 22.
