- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), contemplates entering into a contract under FAR Part 12 with The American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC) in Alexandria, VA to establish a network and infrastructure for poison control centers to rapidly become part of an activated national nurse triage line during a future severe influenza pandemic upon the request of CDC. This project will ensure that poison control centers and its specialists in poison information (SPIs) have established a core set of capabilities necessary for the national nurse triage line to operate. If required, this project will also support the activation of a national nurse triage line and its operations during an influenza pandemic or other public health emergency. To the best of our knowledge, AAPCC is the only organization that represents all 57 poison control centers in the United States. As a result, it is the only organization that has a direct working relationship with every center and can influence the overall activities of each poison center at a national level to support the requirements of a nurse triage line during a severe influenza pandemic. Therefore it is considered to be the only source that can satisfy this requirement. However, CDC will consider any other responsible source responding to this RFP. The anticipated period of performance includes a base period of 12 months and four option periods of 12 months each. Total base and options shall not exceed 60 months from date of award. All questions/concerns about the RFP shall be submitted via e-mail to BBiltz@cdc.gov. The solicitation will be available for downloading when issued, approximately on August 22, 2013. It is your responsibility to keep up with additional postings regarding the RFP on the Fedbizopps Website. See Numbered Note 22.
