Request for Information- Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has issued a Request for Information to gather industry input for the upcoming Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) contract, which involves administrative management and general management consulting services under NAICS code 541611. The RFI seeks to inform the development of a formal Request for Proposal that HRSA anticipates releasing in the coming months, focusing on improving the SRTR's operational efficiency, data accessibility, transparency, and support for organ procurement and transplantation systems. Key objectives include increasing operational efficiency, reducing duplicative functions, enhancing data utility, and improving accountability in organ allocation processes through performance metrics, data collection strategies, and user interface improvements. The RFI contains 13 market research questions that interested parties must address in their responses, with submissions limited to 10 pages in Microsoft Word or PDF format. Responses are due by August 11, 2025, and must be submitted to Nancy Lee at nlee@hrsa.gov, with the understanding that this information may be used to revise procurement documentation and may be released via SAM.gov.

This procurement opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations, making it available to all qualified contractors. The current incumbent for the SRTR contract is Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute, indicating there is an existing contractor relationship that will be subject to recompetition. The estimated contract value is $32,500,000, representing a significant federal investment in transplant registry services and data management capabilities. The contract falls under PSC category R408 for Professional Program Management/Support services, reflecting the specialized nature of managing and analyzing transplant recipient data for the federal government. The timeline indicates that following the August 11, 2025 RFI response deadline, HRSA will use the gathered information to develop and release the formal RFP in the subsequent months, allowing interested contractors to prepare for the full solicitation process.
