The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) leads the nation in preventing, preparing for, responding to, and recovering from the adverse health effects of emergencies and disasters by supporting our communities’ ability to withstand adversity, strengthening our health and response systems, and enhancing national health security. ASPR is responsible for stockpiling and deploying therapeutics, medical and testing supplies needed during a public health response. During a public health emergency, federal stockpiles of therapeutics may need to be distributed and dispensed to people throughout the country. Currently, distribution and dispensing/administration of therapeutics relies heavily on a sole Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) distributing to federal, state, and local health departments. The goal of this contract is to provide VMI services, storage, distribution, and destruction, for United States Government (USG) procured therapeutics and/or vaccines.
