About this opportunity
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), part of the National Institutes of Health under the Department of Health and Human Services, issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity for a bridge contract providing professional information technology services focused on cybersecurity practices and procedures across NIH institutes, centers, and offices. Guidehouse Inc. was awarded the sole-source bridge contract (HHSN316201200040W) on September 29, 2025, to provide continued assistance in institutionalizing cyber-security initiatives that meet federal standards and align with NIH business needs. The justification for sole-source selection was based on Guidehouse's status as the incumbent contractor, their established expertise in supporting the NIH Center for Information Technology's Information Security Program, and the mission-critical nature of maintaining continuous cybersecurity support without interruption. The bridge contract, awarded as a time and materials engagement, extends from the current contract period ending September 28, 2025, through November 28, 2025, providing a two-month extension to ensure uninterrupted service while the government conducts an unrestricted full re-competition anticipated for December 2025. The specific award amount was not disclosed in the published justification document.
