Description

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services intends to award on a sole source basis under Simplified Acquisition Procedures with KPMG Consulting, 1676 International Drive, McLean, VA 22101 a logical follow-on to a current GSA contract to set up a series of focus group discussions across the country that build upon the current Health Improvement Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) initiative. KPMG has developed and administered the first set of HIPAA focus groups from which results have been of very high quality. KPMG therefore has the necessary organizational and project experience already in place to efficiently continue the operation of the HIPAA focus groups. Any other contractor would have to begin from a zero-based framework which would be a drawback given the time constraints involved. If there are no affirmative written responses received within (45) calendar days from the published date of this notice, a purchase order shall be awarded.
 

Place of Performance

Address: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, 7500 Security Boulevard, Baltimore, Maryland

Zip Code: 21244
