2026 National Death Index

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award 57 separate sole source firm fixed price awards to various jurisdictions to continue the collection of information data for the National Death Index. The selected jurisdictions will be responsible for maintaining and operating an information system to extract and transmit selected information from death records to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). The contractor will provide all personnel, materials, services, and facilities required to provide the information to NCHS. • The requirement is for a proprietary or uniquely configured commercial product/service. • The contractor controls the intellectual property, technical data, or integration capability necessary to meet the requirement. • No other known commercial sources can provide a functionally equivalent product or service without unacceptable cost, schedule, or performance impact.
