Notification of Single Source
Cooperative Agreement Award for the

Continue Development of Sustainable
Influenza Vaccine Production Capacity

SUMMARY:
Statutory Authority: Section 319L of the
Public Health Service (PHS) Act, 42 U.S.C.
247d–7e as amended by Title IV of the
Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act
(PAHPA), Pub. L. 109–417; and the

L. 111–117.
Amount of Single Source Award:
$6,400,000.
Project Period: September 30, 2010
through September 29, 2013.
In FY 2010, BARDA plans to provide
a Single Source Continuation Award to
the World Health Organization to
support the International Vaccine
Production Capacity-Building Program.
BARDA currently funds the
development of vaccine manufacturing
capacity in ten developing and
emerging-economy countries worldwide
via a cooperative agreement with the
World Health Organization (WHO). The
WHO has proven to be a key partner and
integral to the success of the program,
which has been in existence since 2006.

Continuing the partnership with the
WHO will prove critical to the long-term
viability of this program while
bolstering the influenza vaccine
manufacturing capabilities of resource
poor nations and global pandemic
preparedness overall.
Single Source Justification: The
International Vaccine Capacity Building
Program, supported by the Department
of Health and Human Services,
Assistant Secretary for Preparedness
and Response, Biomedical Advanced
Research and Development Authority
was developed and has been operational
since 2006. In light of the threat of an
influenza pandemic it was originally
designed with the goals of bolstering
both international and domestic
pandemic preparedness and response.
The fundamental approach in achieving
these goals has been through the
development of the influenza vaccine
production capabilities of under
resourced nations in the hopes that they
will ultimately be able to produce
vaccines to protect the local, regional,
and international public health. The
program is supported by a collaborative
of U.S. Government agencies,
international organizations, foreign
ministries and/or other foreign
institutions dedicated to achieving these
goals.
The WHO is the only global
organization with the experience and
scientific standing to accomplish the
program goals. It is the recognized
world health authority within the
United Nations system. Similarly, the
liaison and support functions that the
WHO plays within the international
vaccine production capacity building
program cannot be duplicated or
replicated. Through standing
consultation and dialog with its
members states on all aspects of public
health, WHO is the only partner able to
ensure synchronization of building of
production capacity in developing
countries for influenza vaccine with
other pandemic preparedness activities
and with increase of demand for
seasonal influenza immunization.
The WHO’s strong collaborative
relationships with foreign governments,
programmatic support, and familiarity
with international vaccine production
institutions have been and will be
critical to the future viability of this
program. Over the history of the
International Vaccine Production
Capacity Building program, the WHO
has provided unique and invaluable
support to the project. Similarly, the
WHO has also independently funded
other nations/institutions working to
strengthen their influenza vaccine
production capacity; also demonstrating
