About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health has issued a Limited Source Justification Notice for a six-month software development and maintenance contract with Software Consultants, Inc. (SCI) valued at $6,950,547.27. The contract, covering the National Library of Medicine's Office of Computer and Communications Systems (OCCS), will provide software development, system administration, application and network security, and IT support services. This bridge contract was necessitated by an ongoing legal protest with the Court of Federal Claims that has halted the standard procurement process, requiring a continuation of critical IT services. The contract includes a base six-month period with three additional optional three-month extensions, ensuring uninterrupted operations for NLM's information systems. NIH conducted market research and identified seven small businesses capable of addressing the requirement, but determined that only the incumbent (SCI) could meet the urgent need without service disruption due to time constraints related to the legal proceedings. The contract falls under the Computer Systems Design Services NAICS category and is critical for maintaining the National Library of Medicine's technological infrastructure and healthcare standards support.
