About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service (IHS), specifically the Gallup Indian Medical Center, is conducting a market research Sources Sought Notice for a Web-Based Digital Library service classified under NAICS Code 519210 (Libraries and Archives). This pre-solicitation notice is designed to identify qualified vendors and assess market availability rather than to solicit formal proposals, with a response deadline of January 6, 2026. Interested firms must demonstrate relevant experience with similar work completed within the past five years and provide documentation including a completed Self-Representation Form, UEI Number, CAGE Code, and a positive statement of intent to submit a quote as a prime contractor. The IHS will utilize responses to this market research to determine the appropriate acquisition strategy and any applicable socioeconomic set-asides. This notice was posted on December 22, 2025, and potential vendors should note that all submissions must address their qualifications under the applicable Buy Indian Act preferences.
The IHS is conducting this market research with particular emphasis on the Buy Indian Act, 25 U.S.C. 47, which mandates preference for Indian economic enterprises; therefore, the notice does not employ a single set-aside designation but rather seeks to determine whether a 100% Set-Aside for Small Business Indian Firms, a 100% Set-Aside for Small Business concerns, or an unrestricted acquisition approach would be most appropriate. No incumbent contractor or current service provider is identified in this pre-solicitation notice. The notice does not disclose a specific award value or budget range, nor does it provide detailed quantity specifications or service timeline information, as this is strictly a market research instrument intended to inform future acquisition strategy. Vendors should prepare their responses with the understanding that this notice establishes the foundation for a formal solicitation to follow, pending the analysis of market research responses.
