About this opportunity
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Office of Cyber Infrastructure and Computational Biology, intends to procure Medidata Remote Source Review (RSR) Software-as-a-Service on a sole-source basis from Medidata Solutions, Inc., with a capability statement deadline of June 4, 2026. This is a six-month bridge contract modification to existing contract 75N93026P00007 to ensure continuity of mission-critical clinical trial monitoring operations while a non-competitive procurement is prepared.
The procurement covers all software subscriptions, licenses, hosting, maintenance, updates, technical support, and related services necessary for authorized Government users and designated clinical trial stakeholders to access participant medical records and study source documents. NIAID justifies the sole source award on the determination that only Medidata publishes RSR software and that Medidata prohibits external parties from hosting their software. Service interruption would risk participant safety, delay adverse event identification, compromise data integrity, disrupt trial timelines, and delay regulatory submissions to the FDA and European Medicines Agency. Transitioning to alternative software could cause data loss, service downtime, and workflow disruption while requiring retraining of all authorized users and stakeholders.
All responsible sources may submit a capability statement by 3:00 PM EST on June 4, 2026, to Christopher Shih, Contracting Officer, at christopher.shih@hhs.gov. Contractors must be registered and maintain valid certification through SAM.gov. Reference HHS-OMAS-2026-03 on all correspondence. NAICS code 513210 applies, with a small business size standard of $47 million.
