- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Children's Dental Health Project, Inc. (CDHP) for the Fluid Database, and Policy Brief. The Children's Dental Health Project is the only vendor that has created and maintained The Fluoride Legislative User Information Database (FLUID). FLUID is a comprehenive database containing legal decisions by U.S. Courts and current information on federal, state, and local policies regarding community water fluoridation FLUID was created to be an up-to-date, user friendly tool to answer questions about the legal and policy status of community water fluoridation in all U.S. states and territories. The goal of FLUID is to enable users to access accurate information and to be a resource that allows them to compare their current or proposed policies with others from across the country. CDC needs for CDHP to maintain this database through legislative and case law searches in order to develop analysis of federal, state, and local laws or regulations that may be impacted by the upcoming release of the final HHS recommendation on the optimal fluoride level needed in community water systems to prevent tooth decay and to track legislative and case law activities that may be spawned by the change. In addition, CDHP has created a database that allows states to compare components of their oral health state plans with others in order to develop better quality planning products. This site is an integral piece that supports CDC's requirement form their 21 state grantees to develop and maintain a state plan for oral health. Finally, CDHP has developed a facilitated process to gather oral health stakeholders to support them in educating, prioritizing, and reaching consensus on which oral health policies may inhibit or accelerate oral health outcomes such as reducing childhood tooth decay, increasing access to oral health preventative services, and decreasing oral health disparities among vulnerable populations. The results of these sessions are crucial to states for planning their oral health program goals and objectives. No other vendor has access to or has utilized these specific tools that support state oral health programs. This contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) and 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within fourteen (14) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government.

Any quotation/response should be emailed to contract specialist at VWL0@cdc.gov by 4:00 P.M. EST., JULY 7TH, 2014.
