The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ) contemplates award of one or more Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity ( ID / IQ ) contracts for the purchase of standard commercial adult vaccines . Vaccines are one of the most cost - effective ways to prevent disease and reduce healthcare costs . The establishment of these contracts provides opportunity to utilize Section 317 vaccine purchase funds to obtain vaccines at prices below those available in the commercial marketplace . These funds provide vaccines for state and local health departments to use in populations at greatest risk for under vaccination and disease . The 317 program , as established under Section 317 ( j ) of the Public Health Service Act , works to ensure that adults receive appropriate immunization by partnering with healthcare providers in the public and private sectors . The program helps assure the implementation of effective immunization practices and proper use of vaccines to achieve higher immunization coverage . The vaccines awarded under these contracts will be purchased for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease ’ s ( NCIRD ’ s ) immunization awardees ( the fifty state health departments , several large city programs , and current and former U . S . Territories ) to support adult immunization programs as provided under Section 317 ( j ) of the Public Health Service Act . In addition , awardees may opt to purchase additional quantities of vaccine for adults under any resulting contract using state and local funds .
