Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response (OPHPR), Division of Emergency Operations (DEO) is seeking a qualified Air Transport Services vendor to provide dedicated, on-call, air transport services support for domestic and international emergency public health missions conducted by the agency. The Division of Emergency Operations (DEO) is assigned the responsibility of coordinating the agency's first response to public health threats; both domestically and internationally. Whether the threatening event is naturally occurring, or the result of man-made or terroristic activities, the DEO's respond must be appropriate and timely for the specific threat; and may involve the deployment of agency personnel and/or equipment/baggage/cargo into a site, or the extraction of agency personnel, infectious individuals and/or biological specimens. First responders may be called upon to operate in areas absent a functioning civil authority, possessing a weakened or non-existent infrastructure, and/or requiring heighten security (communications, personal, and physical) measures. The DEO must have the capability to move personnel, patients, specimens, and or equipment on short notice, 24 hours a day, 365 days per year to anywhere in the USA or to international locations. Most missions will originate from Peachtree-Dekalb Airport, Atlanta, GA. The vendor may be required to transport "dangerous goods" or "select agents" and therefore must have a security plan in compliance with 49 CFR 172.800 and 802. Transport of specimens and laboratory samples containing hazardous or infectious materials, enclosed in appropriate transport containers, demands that flight crew personnel agree to receive vaccinations and prophylaxis as required by CDC medical authorities. For air transport of infectious/contagious patients, the CDC will utilize, in certain cases, the Aeromedical Biological Containment System (ABCS). The ABCS is a portable, tent-like system that can be quickly installed in an aircraft for a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) mission of a single patient. Request for Proposal (RFP) 2011-N-13058 will be published on or about 01 April 2011.
