About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), under the Department of Health and Human Services, issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) on November 21, 2025, for a six-month contract extension of Information Technology Enterprise Support Services (ITESS) to be provided to the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). TCG, Inc., the current contract holder under HHSN316201200178W, is proposed as the sole contractor for this extension based on its unique institutional knowledge of ACF's IT systems, established stakeholder relationships, and specialized expertise in the agency's information technology environment. The extension, running from September 18, 2025, through March 17, 2026, will provide critical IT support services including solution delivery, systems architecture, budget management, FITARA compliance, and enterprise project management, with a total funding requirement of approximately $5.3 million based on existing contract rates with no increase in hourly labor rates. The justification for sole-source procurement cites delays stemming from the HHS Contract Departmental Efficiency Review, extended approval timelines involving Political Appointees, and staffing reductions at ACF Tech and NITAAC, necessitating continuity of services while the government completes a competitive procurement process for a follow-on contract.
Notice text
This is a JEFO to add additional work to the task order.
If you are interested in work at the NIH, I am an assisted acquisitions contracting officer and consequently I only procure off NITAAC GWACS (NAICS 541512, 541519, 334111). If you are interested in any of my requirements, GWAC contract holders can find them on e-GOS. Also if you are interested in partnering with any of our contract holders please see: https://nitaac.nih.gov/search/contract-holders.
Additionally, if you are a small business I would also guide you to reach out to https://www.hhs.gov/about/agencies/asfr/ogapa/osdbu/index.html this team may be able to help you locate where the HHS (one level above the NIH) is buying what your company offers.
Awarded contract HHSN316201200178W to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2020-09-18.
