- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, NCIRD/ISD, 1600 Clifton Rd. NE, Mailstop A19, Atlanta, GA, 30333, hereby announces its intent to issue a sole source contract in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) to Dine College, Public Health Program, 1228 Yucca Street, Shiprock, AZ 87420 to develop contemporary and scientifically up-to-date vide information products on hantavirus/HPS. NAICS Code: 611310 Period of Performance: 01/07/2013 to 09/07/2013 The final video-based communication products, given that they will be created in both English and Navajo languages, are best developed by native speakers which creates the need for fluency in both languages. Dine College already has an established relationship with the Navajo Tribal Government which saves valuable time that would be lost by bringing in an outside vendor because the Navajo are a sovereign nation and as such would require Tribal Council approval for the project. Gaining tribal council approval can take a considerable amount of time. Relationship building and trust are already established with Tribal Colleges and Universities like Dine College, making them the most logical partner. Beyond that, it's important to remember the initial hantavirus outbreak in 1993 occurred primarily on the Navajo Reservation. Navajo students in the course, who live on the Reservation, are well-positioned to conduct interviews on sensitive topics, like loss of family members to the disease, in either Navajo or English, depending on the interviewee, which can add significantly to the public health impact of the finished videos. 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 Michael Harwell, Contracting Specialist, Reference 200-2013-M-54103, Centers for Disease Control, Procurement and Grants Office, ATTN: Michael Harwell, MS: K14, 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. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within fifteen (15) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government for future acquisitions. All vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov prior to an award of a federal contract.
