About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source Award issued by the Billings Area Indian Health Service for a policy management software services contract. The Billings Area IHS intends to award a commercial, firm fixed price sole source contract to DATIX (USA) Inc., located at 311 S Wacker Drive, Suite 4900, Chicago, Illinois. The software services will be provided to five Montana-based service units: Blackfeet Service Unit (Browning, MT); Fort Belknap Service Unit (Havre, MT); Fort Peck Service Unit (Poplar, MT); Northern Cheyenne Service Unit (Lame Deer, MT); and Crow Service Unit (Crow Agency, MT).
The justification for sole sourcing is that DATIX is the only vendor granted exemption by the Chief Information Officer from the FedRAMP requirement for the Billings Area. DATIX has been providing similar services to these service units prior to the FedRAMP requirement's establishment and has been authorized to continue providing services without this certification. The procurement authority is derived from Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 12 for acquisition of commercial products and services, 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) as implemented by RFO 6.103-1, and FAR 37.101 for non-personal services contracts. This is not a competitive solicitation; however, other firms believing they can provide comparable software are encouraged to submit written notification within 10 days of publication to be considered for a potential competitive procurement determination.
