About this file

This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a federal contract. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 1 (NCO 1), intends to award a sole source contract to Modus Health LLC for continuation of StepWatch Activity Monitor data processing, cloud analytics, mobile device management (MDM) services, remote training, and validated algorithmic data cleaning services. The services support the CSP2017 Pivotal Percutaneous Osseointegrated Prosthesis (POP) Study conducted through Jamaica Plain VA Medical Center. The contractor is located at 6100 219th St SW Suite 480 in Mountlake Terrace, Washington 98043. The prior contract period ended July 8, 2026, with uninterrupted continuation required beginning August 1, 2026 to maintain the clinical trial's scientific validity and data comparability.

The sole source justification is based on Modus Health's exclusive ownership and control of the StepWatch system, including its proprietary data processing algorithms, CSP-specific cloud environment, UDI-matched device compatibility, and validated longitudinal mobility metrics pipeline. Substituting alternative vendors would require protocol changes, re-validation of study endpoints, and would compromise multi-year data collected under the previous contract 36C24121P0844. This action is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b) and supports the VA's statutory research mission under 38 U.S.C. § 7303. The notice is issued for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a Request for Quote, Invitation for Bid, or Request for Proposal. Interested parties who believe they can provide StepWatch-compatible services may submit a capability statement demonstrating ownership or licensing of compatible hardware and software, ability to provide CSP-specific datasets, and proven capability to deliver required services.

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE

Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 1 (NCO 1) Notice ID: 36C24126Q0682 Proposed Awardee: Modus Health LLC

The Department of Veterans Affairs, NCO 1, on behalf of Jamaica VA Medical Center, intends to award a sole source contract to Modus Health LLC, 6100 219th St SW Suite 480 Mountlake Terrace, WA 98043 for continuation of StepWatch Activity Monitor data‑processing, cloud analytics, MDM services, remote training, and validated algorithmic data‑cleaning required for the CSP2017 Pivotal Percutaneous Osseointegrated Prosthesis (POP) Study conducted through Jamaica Plain VAMC.

The StepWatch system, including its proprietary data‑processing algorithms, CSP‑specific cloud environment, UDI‑matched device compatibility, and validated longitudinal mobility‑metrics pipeline, is uniquely owned and controlled by Modus Health and cannot be replicated or lawfully provided by any other vendor. Substituting another brand or analytics solution would require protocol changes, re‑validation of study endpoints, and would break comparability with multi‑year data already collected under previous contract 36C24121P0844. The prior period ended July 8, 2026, and uninterrupted continuation beginning August 1, 2026 is mission‑critical to the clinical trial’s scientific validity. This action is therefore justified under FAR 13.106‑1(b) as a sole source procurement, fully supporting VA’s statutory research mission under 38 U.S.C. § 7303.

This notice is issued solely for information and planning purposes. It does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ), Invitation for Bid (IFB), or Request for Proposal (RFP).

Interested parties who believe they can provide StepWatch compatible services must submit a capability statement detailing:

· Demonstrated ownership/licensing of StepWatch‑compatible hardware, software, and validated analytics

· Ability to provide CSP-specific datasets without protocol changes or re‑validation

· Proven capability to deliver identical proprietary outputs required by the POP Study

No solicitation will be posted.
