Section Lead: Rosemary Mann
The Influenza and Infectious and Emerging Diseases Contracts Section takes a comprehensive approach to developing and acquiring a broad array of medical countermeasures for pandemic flu and other emerging infectious diseases, including vaccines, therapeutics, diagnostics and non-pharmaceutical countermeasures. As part of this approach, the Influenza and Infectious and Emerging Diseases Contracts Section supports activities to sustain these products, including the building and sustaining of their domestic manufacturing infrastructure. It supports the Pandemic Influenza Preparedness Program and Infectious and Emerging Disease Program of the Biomedical Advance Research and Development Authority (BARDA).
Available Opportunities
The Influenza and Infectious and Emerging Diseases Section generally uses Open Market Competitive acquisitions; although there are some products that are purchased through the General Services Administration Government Wide Acquisition Contracts (GWAC). Acquisitions average $200,000,000 and are usually classified as Research and Development.
