The HHS Office of Public Health Emergency Preparedness (OPHEP) was established in 2002. This office holds responsibility for implementation of a comprehensive HHS strategy to protect the American population from, and be prepared to respond to, acts of bioterrorism and other public health emergencies. Specifically, the Office of Research and Development Coordination (ORDC) within OPHEP has the responsibility within HHS to contract with industry for large-scale manufacturing and delivery of licensable products to the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) in preparation for a public health emergency response. DESCRIPTION: The purpose of this notice is to indicate that HHS anticipates publishing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for acquisition of product on or after December 5, 2005. The Department of Health and Human Services has a requirement for the acquisition and maintenance of therapeutic products to mitigate and/or treat the hematopoietic disruptions associated with Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS). ARS, also referred to as radiation sickness, is an acute illness caused by radiation delivered to the whole body (or a large proportion of the body) over a period of seconds to days. In addition ingested, inhaled, or absorbed radioisotopes could also produce ARS. There are several blood-cell types that are primarily affected in ARS including white cells (neutrophils and lymphocytes), red cells, and platelets. The significant decrease of neutrophils (called neutropenia) significantly increases an individual's susceptibility to lethal infections. Severe thrombocytopenia and anemia, (a lack of platelets and red blood cells respectively) can significantly increase an individual's risk for bleeding (at platelet levels Point of Contact Rodney Cartwright, Contracting Specialist, Phone 202-205-5751, Fax 202-205-6092, Email rodney.cartwright@hhs.gov - David Beck, Chief Contracting Officer, Phone 202-205-5639, Fax 202-690-7412, Email david.beck@hhs.gov

Strategic review and assessment of the existing version 2.0 of the Outbreak Management System (OMS), as further described by the Statement of Work. Quantity: 1 Job. STATEMENT OF WORK. I. OVERVIEW. The Outbreak Management System (OMS) is a public health information networks (PHIN), standards-based, data collection, analysis, and reporting tool that supports investigations of public health events or acts of bioterrorism. OMS supports public health officials who perform the vital activities necessary to investigate an outbreak. Configured to meet the needs of various public health events (e.g., smallpox, tuberculosis, SARS), OMS supports the capture of case-based data from cases and contacts and exposures and relationships. II. BACKGROUND. OMS addresses the CDC response to the Congressional Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 that specifically requires the HHS Secretary to establish a national and integrated system for public health in support of terrorism response and prevention. It also addresses the requirements of local and state partner?s response to the 2005 Cooperative Agreement Guidance for Public Health Emergency Preparedness. During the chaotic period following a natural occurring outbreak or public health event (e.g. SARS, monkeypox) or the deliberate use of a threat, including biological, chemical, and radiological agents, public health authorities gather the information necessary to identify, investigate, analyze, monitor, and respond. Public health authorities must obtain a dynamic, high-level, yet granular insight into the incident, trace people possibly exposed to communicable diseases or conditions, and trace exposures to possible disease vectors or investigate theoretical conveyance paths. Yet, there are no systematic, standards-based tools that collect and manage data of this type. As a result, because there many investigators use different tools, the ability to aggregate and analyze data from a multi-jurisdiction investigation is neither efficient nor effective. Time is wasted on mapping, translating, and inferring data derived from various tools. Further, not all data are captured consistently to enable the establishment and maintenance of data linkages. OMS uses a PHIN, standards-based set of public health informatics rules to manage outbreaks during a public health event. OMS captures standard demographic and exposure data; configures outbreak-specific vocabularies; performs analyses; creates dynamic questionnaires, reports, and outbreak-specific packages; manages case and contact investigations; imports data; records epidemiologic linkages; and allows for managing exposed contacts. OMS is a key component of the PHIN. In order to expand local, state, and federal capacity, OMS provides the technical specifications and standards as well as a PHIN-compliant system for state and local partners to use in order to proactively manage outbreaks. III. SCOPE OF WORK. The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, transportation, training and other materials necessary to provide a detailed review, assessment, and recommend improvements for the Outbreak Management System (OMS). The performance shall occur onsite at CDC facilities in Atlanta, Georgia. VI. OBJECTIVES. The evaluation and assessment will identify: a. Current CDC national-level business practices and preferences for outbreak investigation (OMS and non-OMS); i. Measure the usefulness/utility of the current system (OMS or non-OMS); ii. What improvements to their current system do CDC users want; b. Inventory of tools used at CDC for outbreak management and compare and contrast each tool?s strengths and weaknesses; c. Determine what types of integration with other data systems (e.g., NEDSS, BioSense, LRN) would most benefit interoperability and comply with PHIN standards; d. Determine types of integration with other outbreak management software (e.g., Epi Info, CRA) would most benefit interoperability and comply with PHIN standards; e. Compare OMS current functionality with functionality identified for a multi-jurisdictional outbreak; f. Develop tactical approach to better adoption of OMS; i. Assess and review user acceptance testing and methodology used for OMS; ii. Assess and review prototypes used for OMS; g. Assess/review existing OMS functional requirements, business case, business case and feature set to determine strengths and weaknesses of the current version and identify gaps of new/needed functionality. V. TASKS. Task 1: Assess and review current project model and business practices. The Contractor shall conduct a strategic review of the Outbreak Management System (OMS). This assessment and review is to be conducted among centers, Institutes and offices (CIOs) as determined by the Project Officer. This assessment will also include CDC subject matter experts (SMEs). Task 2: Specify barriers to adoption. The contractor shall identify and specify barriers to adoption of OMS by conducting interviews with CDC Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and other officials as determined by the CDC Project Officer. Task 3: Recommend Improvements. Upon completion of interviews and assessments, the Contractor shall recommend improvements to CDC (programs/ CIOs) and CDC SMEs. Task 4: Software review. The Contractor shall assess and evaluate the business case for a standardized, national application that meets outbreak management functional requirements This assessment will encompass commerical best practices, system interoperability and adherence to Public Health Information Networks (PHIN) standards. VI. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE. The Government estimates the period of performance for this requirement to be 30 calendar days after contract award. VII. DELIVERABLE SCHEDULE. Deliverables: Progress Reports to include summary of performance (i.e., interviews/evaluations, etc.) shall be submitted weekly (after award) to the Contracting Officer and Project Officer. Weekly Progress Report- Submitted to CO/PO- Within 7 calendar days of award; Weekly Progress Report- Submitted to CO/PO- Within 7 calendar days of Progress Report #1; Evaluation Summary- Submitted to CO/PO- Upon completion ? not to exceed 21 calendar days after award. **NOTE** - Evaluation Summary shall consist of an oral presentation to the Government at a place and time to be determined by the Government, within 21 calendar days of award.
