The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is awarding a sole source, firm-fixed-price contract to the University of Michigan / Kidney Epidemiology and Cost Center (UM/KECC) for data analysis and reporting services critical to the oversight of End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), Transplant, and Organ Procurement Organization (OPO) programs. This action is justified under specific federal acquisition regulations due to the unique and specialized expertise of UM/KECC, with no other entity capable of fulfilling the required functions. The acquisition is conducted under FAR Part 12 because the services are classified as commercial services, ensuring streamlined procurement processes while maintaining rigorous standards. The contract requires the contractor to produce a comprehensive suite of detailed, timely, and standardized reports on dialysis facilities, transplant programs, and OPOs, including facility-specific profiles, state and regional comparisons, outcome rankings, and composite data for survey planning. These reports are essential tools for CMS and state agencies to monitor performance, ensure compliance, and enhance the safety and quality of care across the national kidney disease treatment and transplant network. All deliverables must be distributed securely and promptly via a dedicated website to support oversight stakeholders including surveyors, state authorities, providers, and the public. Reports include monthly initial transplant program updates, organization-specific OPO analyses, state-ranked outcomes lists with public-facing reversed top-performer versions, and nationally aggregated statistics that highlight variations in practice and patient outcomes. The work is governed by a detailed Statement of Work and is critical to CMS’s mission of accountability and transparency in renal and transplant healthcare. The solicitation, identified as 75FCMC26R0057, was posted on July 10, 2026, with responses due by August 10, 2026, and is administered by the Office of Acquisition and Grants Management within the Department of Health and Human Services, based in Baltimore, Maryland. Point of contact for inquiries is Joshua Czerski, with Brian Humes as secondary contact.

Rigorously Evaluating Approaches to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse and Problematic Sexual Behavior among YouthThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control is seeking investigator-initiated research proposals to rigorously evaluate programs and policies aimed at the primary prevention of child sexual abuse and problematic sexual behavior among youth under 18. Child sexual abuse is defined as sexual victimization by an adult, while problematic sexual behavior refers to developmentally inappropriate sexual actions by youth that may cause harm, whether intentional or not. The research must focus on one of three priorities: prevention efforts targeting digital spaces such as the creation or distribution of explicit imagery involving children, initiatives addressing the use of digital platforms for commercial sexual exploitation and sex trafficking of minors, or organizational policies within youth-serving settings like schools, foster care, faith-based groups, and community centers designed to prevent abuse and harmful behaviors. The goal is to build a strong evidence base for effective primary prevention strategies that can be widely implemented. All proposals must meet gold standard research criteria to ensure rigorous evaluation, and applicants are expected to design studies that can demonstrate measurable impact and scalability. The funding opportunity is open to researchers and institutions capable of conducting high-quality, independent evaluations, with no set-asides specified. Interested parties can direct inquiries to Dr. Candis M. Hunter via the provided contact information. The announcement was posted on July 10, 2026, and prospective applicants are encouraged to review the full solicitation through the official grants portal for detailed submission guidelines and requirements.

SBES Data Discovery and Interoperability AwardsThe Department of Commerce’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is soliciting responses to a sources-sought notice for a sole-source, Firm-Fixed-Price contract to award the University of Colorado Boulder’s Natural Hazards Center for the SBES Data Discovery and Interoperability Awards. The requirement is strictly for an existing, operational, data-rich social, behavioral, and economic science (SBES) framework and database that is already in use and cannot be developed under this contract. The selected contractor will leverage this pre-existing framework to administer competitive subcontracts to academic researchers, directing efforts toward metadata alignment, open-source tool development, dataset integration proofs-of-concept, and interoperability readiness assessments to enhance the discoverability and usability of SBES data for integration with meteorological and hydrological systems. The Natural Hazards Center is identified as the only entity capable of fulfilling this requirement due to its unique network of over 146 researchers across 80 institutions, its established Weather Ready Research Program, and its prior collaboration with NOAA under the Weather Ready Nation initiative, which has cultivated a comprehensive repository of SBES data tied to extreme weather and water events. The anticipated contract period is two years beginning on or before September 18, 2026, with no option periods, and work will be performed at the contractor’s facility, though the place of performance is listed as Silver Spring, Maryland. The contractor must demonstrate proof of an existing SBES framework, along with experience managing academic research partnerships or subcontracts, and must be registered in the System for Award Management. All personnel must clearly identify as contractors in written and verbal communications, wear visible badges during in-person interactions, and include formal signature blocks in all deliverables. Key deliverables include draft subcontract solicitation materials and review criteria within 60 days of award, proposed subcontract documentation by day 180, and cumulative program reports at day 330 and 30 days before contract closeout. Performance will be monitored through quarterly check-ins with the Contracting Officer’s Representative, with strict acceptance criteria: 95% of deliverables due on time, 90% of technical documents accepted after no more than one major revision, and 98% of system data entries accurate and complete. The government retains the authority to withhold invoices for substandard performance, issue Contract Discrepancy Reports, and assign negative past performance ratings. Responses must be submitted via a designated Google Portal by the deadline and must exclude any proprietary or confidential information. This notice does not constitute a commitment
