About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for a two-month bridge contract with Lumen Technologies Government Solutions, Inc. for co-location data center services at their Sterling, VA facility. The contract (75N97025P00033) is valued at approximately $750,000 and will cover services from January 30, 2025 to March 29, 2025, supporting over 40,000 users across NIH's 27 Institutes and Centers. The sole source justification is based on unusual and compelling urgency under FAR 6.302-2(b)(2), as relocating to a new facility would require 12 months of planning and cost $30-40M, potentially significantly disrupting critical operations. An earlier Request for Information (RFI) identified six potential vendors, but none could provide the continuity of existing FISMA High-rated Tier 3 data center services, including disaster recovery, COOP support, and 24/7 operations. NIH plans to pursue a competitive procurement in the future after completing cloud migration planning and infrastructure refresh coordination to reduce transition risks and costs.
