- Description
- Sole Source Justification The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, NCIRD/DVD, 1600 Clifton Rd. NE, Atlanta, GA, 30333, hereby announces its intent to issue a sole source contract in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 to the University of Michigan to obtain an economic model for assessing the direct, indirect, and intangible costs associated with the vaccine preventable disease of Shingles. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) as cited in FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." The National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease (NCIRD) has a requirement to assess the economic impact of the Shingles disease. Singles is unique among vaccine preventable diseases since a large part of its total burden is in the form of intangible costs (pain, suffering) borne exclusively by individuals. The University of Michigan has developed an economic model for assessing the direct, indirect, and intangible costs of shingles and its complications. The economic model possessed by the University possesses a more complete, robust, and thorough analysis of all of the associated impacts of the disease than other economic analyses conducted. Responsible sources that believe they possess the expertise and capabilities identified above are encouraged to submit to the Contracting Officer within 15 days from the posting date of this notice, their written capabilities statement, proposal or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. Please forward the capability statement and/or pricing information to David Dombeck, Contract Officer, Reference 2015-80812, Centers for Disease Control, Procurement and Grants Office, ATTN: David Dombeck, MS: K-14, 2920 Brandywine Road, Atlanta, GA 30341. All vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to an award of a federal contract. The website is: www.sam.gov. The Government will review any/all capabilities statements and pricing information submitted and determine if other qualified sources do exist that could provide this requirement. Information received in response to this announcement will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. If no affirmative responses are received within 15 days, negotiations will be conducted with the University of Michigan, as the only source and a contract will be issued without any additional notices being posted.
