Science & Tech Support Contract Cherokee

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is forecasting a staffing contract under NAICS code 541690 for science and technology support services to be awarded to the Cherokee Nation. This opportunity is intended to provide specialized technical and scientific staffing to support CDC’s mission-critical functions, though specific scope details are not yet defined. The contract is planned for issuance in the future, with a posted forecast date of May 25, 2026, and no solicitation number has been assigned at this stage. There is no set-aside designation specified, meaning it is open to all eligible contractors, but the Cherokee Nation is identified as the anticipated awardee based on federal contracting priorities. The point of contact for program-related inquiries is Robert Latimer, reachable at fyb8@cdc.gov, while the contracting officer position remains to be determined. The place of performance and office address details are unspecified, suggesting the work could be performed remotely or across multiple locations as needed. The contract has no estimated value or timeline publicly outlined beyond the forecast date, and interested parties are directed to the HHS OSDBU portal for updates. This forecast signals an upcoming procurement aimed at leveraging skilled personnel to advance public health science and technology initiatives under CDC’s oversight.
