The CDC’s Global Surveillance, Laboratory, and Data Systems (GSLDS) branch seeks a sole‑source, firm‑fixed‑price contractor to provide comprehensive program monitoring and evaluation (M&E) support for its global health security initiatives. The contractor will act as a subject‑matter expert, delivering analytic, technical, and advisory services to improve implementation, measure outcomes, and strengthen data‑driven decision‑making across prevention, detection, and response activities.
