About this forecast
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) forecasts a new requirement for HCL BigFix software, with an estimated solicitation release of March 1, 2026 and an estimated award of September 1, 2026, both of which precede this November 14, 2026 posting. The requirement supports cybersecurity operations and reporting for NICHD, providing a secure computing environment and ensuring compliance with FISMA and the DHS-CDM program. BigFix Configuration & Inventory is already operational at the enterprise level, tracking hardware inventory, configuration compliance on end-user devices and servers, and patching vulnerabilities, and it has been in production for more than 4 years in a configuration highly customized to NICHD needs, with the source stating that replacing it with another brand would inflict significant costs and business disruption on the infrastructure and scientific communities.
The estimated award value range is $25,000 to $250,000, and the forecast is set aside for Total Small Business under NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers). Points of contact are Erik Viilu, Deputy CIO, Technology Management, at erik.viilu@nih.gov or +1 301-402-9317, and Justin Borden, Contract Specialist, at justin.borden@nih.gov or +1 301-480-9887.
