B -- A SOLE-SOURCE MODIFICATION TO CONTRACT TO CONTINUE WORK ON THE WIC ELIGIBILITY STUDY II FOR ONE YEAR. ENTAILS THE DEVELOPMENT OF ESTIMATES OF THE NUMBER OF PERSONS ELIGIBLE FOR WIC. DUE 091997 POC Lisa Wilusz (703) 305-2250 The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food and Consumer Service (FCS) intends to issue a sole-source modification on Contract 53-3198-2-014 with Sigma One Corporation in order to continue work on the WIC Eligibility Study II for one year. The contract was originally awarded on September 25, 1992, and expires on September 21, 1997. The project has entailed the development of estimates of the number of persons eligible for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). The analysis requires the synthesis of data from a variety of sources including WIC state agencies, Census, and the Centers for Disease Control using a technical approach developed in conjunction with FSC. The purpose of this modification is to finalize the analysis by incorporating additional data which has recently been released from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). This data will be integrated into the analysis which has already been undertaken as part of this contract. The completed analysis will be presented in a final report. This FCS notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals (RFP), nor does the Government intend to pay for the preparation of requested information. However, any firm believing itself capable of performing this work should submit a Capability Statement to: Lisa Wilusz, USDA Food and Consumer Service, Contracts Management Branch, Room 914, 3101 Park Center Drive, Alexandria, VA 22302,(703) 305-2250. Capability statements must be received no later than 15 days from the publication date of this notice. (0248)
