- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention requires an award of a purchase order to the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) for the annual fee for joint accreditation. This will enable CDC to be simultaneously accredited to provide medical, nursing, pharmacy, and optometry continuing education through a single, unified application process, fee structure, and set of accreditation standards. Pursuant to, FAR 13.106(1) (b), Soliciting from a single source, (1) for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, (i) Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization).� The CDC has determined that ACPE is the only company that meets the requirements to provide this joint accreditation. The joint accreditation via ACPE is the only innovation in the world offering multiple accreditation in one (1) review process and is the national agency for the accreditation of professional degree programs in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, as well as other disciplines. Therefore, award of a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order is being contemplated in accordance with FAR Part 13. Any questions regarding this notice shall be submitted in writing only to Laurie Taylor at yrj7@cdc.gov. The anticipated date of award is March 17, 2020. It is your responsibility to keep up with additional postings regarding this announcement on the beta.sam.gov website. Telephone inquiries will not be honored.
