Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a fixed price modification to Children's Hospital Corporation for continued platform improvements for VaccineFinder.Gov.� This requirement is part of the existing contract number 200-2017-95101 being facilitated by Children's Hospital Corporation.� This Modification is to continue platform improvements, hosting of the back-end, support center, program and product management, and other operations and maintenance activities critical to the continued success of this program even after the presidential directive to have national launch on Vaccines.gov on May 1, 2021. These partners have developed, improved, and maintained the information on the Vaccinefinder.org site for the last 10+ years for seasonal and routine immunizations. Additionally, the partners have built the infrastructure of the current system and have the critical technical and program knowledge that is required to continue supporting this work. This requires infrastructure, reporting, development work, user support, accessibility and scalability operations and maintenance work to both the public facing platform and back-end provider reporting portal in order to support the COVID-19 response and beyond, with the goal to improve access to critical vaccines for eligible members of the public and maintain a unified platform across the Finder systems to support routine and seasonal vaccines and medications. This effort will provide increased access to critical vaccines for eligible members of the public through a national database of approved and enrolled providers in support of the overall National Strategy. Prior to award of the existing contract number 200-2017-95101, we conducted multiple searches to show that other systems which exist are simply pharmacy locators (allow a user to find the nearest pharmacy). They were found to not have the capability to aggregate, translate, and integrate pharmacy and provider inventory detail as needed for this effort to meet government response needs. Additionally, no existing systems were found to have the capability for aggregating where users can search for locations offering various immunizations https://vaccinefinder.org/. Manufacturers were found to have locator tools specific to only their products, but no comparable tool was found to provide the capabilities that Vaccine Finder offers. The Vaccine Finder tool is maintained by Children's Hospital Corporation Computational Epidemiology Group. The concept of MedFinder builds on the Vaccine Finder technology and system. These technology and system aspects reside within the proprietary system and technology currently being executed under the existing contract with Boston Children�s Hospital Computational Epidemiology Group. 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 6.302-1 and 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(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 fifteen (15) 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.� Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.� Any quotation/response should be emailed to William Brannen at VWL0@cdc.gov by 2:00 P.M. EST., June 9, 2021.
