Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to the American College of Radiology, to provide training, administer the NIOSH B Reader Examination, and create a web-based study syllabus to increase the number of NIOSH certified B Readers and make the course and exam more accessible.

Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Any quotation/response should b...
