About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Medical Command, through the Medical Readiness Contracting Office - West (MRCO-W), has published a Special Notice for a sole-source contract at William Beaumont Army Medical Center (WBAMC). This opportunity focuses on rebuilding and enhancing the IntelliBridge Enterprise (IBE) interface solution, which provides critical physiological monitoring capabilities integrated with MHS GENESIS, the Department of Defense's unified electronic health record system. The contract is classified under Computer Systems Design Services (NAICS 541512) and IT and Telecom Business Application Support Services (PSC DA01). The Special Notice was posted on December 15, 2025, with a proposal due date of December 18, 2025, indicating an expedited timeline for submission. This is a sole-source award with no set-asides, meaning the government has determined that only one contractor can meet the specialized requirements.

The primary objective of this contract is to rebuild failed IBE instances, establish redundancy across two new virtual servers, configure the latest physiological monitoring software (IBE version B.20 on Windows Server 2019), and ensure full compliance with Philips Cyber Security Authority to Operate standards for government network utilization. The estimated Period of Performance runs from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2028, consisting of one base year and two option years. Key contractor requirements include providing 24/7 remote software support, on-site escalation support during business hours, emergency assistance, patch management, vulnerability remediation, and conducting annual equipment reviews with the Government Contracting Officer's Representative. While the Special Notice does not specify explicit eligibility restrictions, the sole-source designation and specialized nature of the IBE interface solution strongly suggest that the government has pre-identified Philips as the sole qualified vendor capable of delivering these critical medical system services. Interested parties should note the compressed three-day submission window and ensure all technical and compliance documentation aligns with the detailed Performance Work Statement requirements.
