- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is leading the national effort to revise the 1996 Guidelines for the Death Scene Investigation of Sudden, Unexplained Infant Death and the Sudden, Unexplained Infant Death Investigation Report Form (SUIDIRF). The SUIDIRF is used nationally by states, counties, and local jurisdictions on a voluntary basis to gather information about the circumstances surrounding sudden, unexplained infant deaths (SUIDS). The SUIDIRF is important because it provides a standardized system for the death scene investigation of SUIDS. Lack of such a standardization results in inaccurate diagnosis and reporting of the cause of death, and thus hinders our ability to monitor trends in SUIDS, conduct meaningful research, and monitor programs aimed at preventing SUIDS. To improve the diagnosis and reporting of SUIDS in the US, all death scene investigators need to have access to and familiarity with the form, as well as training on how to conduct a SUIDS death scene investigation. Therefore, the CDC, Maternal and Infant Health Branch (MIHB) is seeking to obtain the services from an experienced contractor to train coroners, medical examiners and all those involved with infant death scene investigations to conduct an infant death scene investigation using the revised SUIDIRF and related training materials. There is a base period of performance approximately 8 months and two option periods of 12 months each. CDC will consider all responsible sources responding to this Request for Proposals (RFP). All questions/concerns about the RFP shall be submitted via e-mail to BBiltz@cdc.gov. The tentative issue date is March 16, 2005, with the RFP issue date approximately 30 days after posting of the RFP. The complete solicitation package will be available and posted at this site for downloading when issued. No telephone requests of the solicitation will be accepted. No hard copy of the solicitation package will be mailed. The associated NAICS codes are 541710 or and the small business size standard is $6 million. It is your responsibility to keep up with additional postings regarding the RFP on the Fedbizopps Website. See numbered note 1.
