Q -- MEDICAL: DEVELOP A REFINED FRAMEWORK FOR STATE-BASED TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY SOL 1999Q00154 DUE 061299 POC Andrew B. Kegler, Purchasing Agent, (770) 488-2639 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to solicit a quotation for the development of a refined framework (surveillance program logic model) for state-based traumatic brain injury (TBI) surveillance, and assess the usefulness of the data collected by defining who uses the data, the purposes for which the data are used, the data elements used, and other data elements of interest not currently collected. The focus of this evaluation will include the development of case studies of individual state programs, creating a model of critical indicators (process and outcome) that can be used to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of these programs at all stages of development and implementation, and describing actual and potential uses for the data. This is a 100% small business set-aside under SIC code 8733 with a size standard of $5 million average annual receipts for the three fiscal years. Simplified Acquisition Procedures will be utilized and written quotations will be solicited on or about 6/15/99. All interested parties are requested to submit a written request for an RFQ package. Requests must reflect the RFQ number as indicated in item 9 above. Submit requests to Andrew Kegler at the above address, M/S K69, or via e-mail at abk2@cdc.gov, or facsimile at 770 488-2671.
