Notice ID: 2022-63404
“The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) anticipates the need for a firm-fixed-price award to track the uptake of influenza and possible other vaccines of interest, such as COVID-19 during the 2022-23 season and influenza-related KABBs among HCP in the United States.”
“Description of work (organized by Task): Contractor will conduct the following for the HCP sample:
- Prepare and send a memorandum describing the analytic approach for data collection, analysis, and reporting format.
- The Contractor will design questionnaires with formats to be decided with input from CDC. CDC will give final approval of the questionnaire. CDC will provide an initial draft questionnaire.
- The Contractor will develop data analysis and reporting plans with formats to be decided with input from CDC. CDC will give final approval of the data analysis and reporting plans.
- Field one survey of HCP, in the minimum time possible to achieve the desired sample sizes for each of the subgroups of interest (April 2023; exact timing will be decided in collaboration with CDC). Surveys could be random digit dial surveys, internet panel surveys, or other study designs that can provide a nationally representative survey population with the requested sample size.
- Contractor must have ability to add additional surveys in the case of an influenza pandemic or pandemics caused by other agents or the need for more frequent data arises.
- Conduct all activities necessary for data management (i.e. data cleaning, quality control, recoding of variables if necessary), documentation, weighting and analysis.
- Respond to ad hoc requests from CDC for charts, graphs, PowerPoint slides, and analyses as appropriate.
- Produce interim and final reports, including a methodology report, dataset, and codebook with basic frequencies with verbatim answers on each variable (main variables outlined later in this SOW).
- Provide CDC with all data in SAS format and needed documentation within 6 weeks after completion of each survey, as well as a final cleaned, recoded and final weighted dataset. Cleaned and recoded dataset should include any necessary reclassification of verbatim responses, and any necessary re-weighting to reflect the reclassification.
- Provide statistical analysis, computer coding, and technical support to CDC in the interpretation of survey results…”
