Inventory Management System

The Indian Health Service (IHS), a component of the Department of Health and Human Services, has published a Special Notice indicating its intent to award a sole-source contract to Morris Systems Incorporated for an Inventory Management System under NAICS code 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, and Related Services). This Notice of Intent to Award is issued under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, which permits sole-source awards when only one responsible source exists. The posting was made on November 6, 2025, and represents IHS's preliminary announcement of its contracting decision. This is a federal contracting opportunity that allows interested vendors a brief window to submit capability statements before the anticipated award.

The objective of this Special Notice is to notify potential contractors of IHS's intent to procure computing infrastructure services, specifically for a software upgrade where Morris Systems Incorporated has been identified as the only firm capable of providing the required proprietary software. Interested contractors must submit a capability statement via email to dale.clark@ihs.gov by 1:00 PM MST on November 16, 2025, referencing notice number IHS1519731. While submission of a capability statement does not guarantee contract award consideration, it allows vendors to present their qualifications to IHS. The government explicitly reserves the right to use submitted information for potential solicitation development and advises respondents to refrain from including proprietary, classified, or sensitive information in their submissions. Any resulting formal solicitation will be announced through Federal Business Opportunities, ensuring transparency in the federal procurement process.
