Purchase Order 75N93026P00007

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a component of the National Institutes of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded a $749,513.39 firm-fixed-price purchase order to Medidata Solutions, Inc. for the renewal of Remote Source Review Software-as-a-Service licenses supporting clinical site monitoring activities within the Division of AIDS. The contract, effective January 1, 2026 through June 30, 2026, was awarded on a sole-source basis under Federal Acquisition Regulation 13.106-1(b)(2), as NIAID determined that Medidata was the only responsible source capable of delivering the validated, federally and internationally compliant remote monitoring environment required for the agency's clinical studies. The procurement includes four contract line items comprising 50 subscription services for Remote Source Review study lanes, 10 professional services for new study builds, 50 professional services for post go-live support, and 2 professional services for simple study updates over the performance period. No set-aside designation was applied to this procurement.

Medidata Solutions, Inc., a foreign-owned, cloud-based software and data analytics company headquartered in New York and registered in SAM.gov since 2007, served as the incumbent contractor on this renewal. The vendor specializes in electronic data capture, clinical trial management, and remote monitoring software solutions and holds significant existing relationships with the National Institutes of Health, including a $74 million five-year indefinite delivery contract with the National Cancer Institute awarded in September 2023 for comprehensive hosting, maintenance, and professional services for its Rave electronic data capture system. Work will be performed in Rockville, Maryland.
