Blue Water Initiatives holds three recent prime awards, all awarded in September 2026, totaling $186 million in combined potential value. The largest is a $175 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract from VA Strategic Acquisition Center Frederick for National VHA Biomedical Engineering Technical Professional Support Services (BETPSS) extending through September 19, 2031. This five-year contract (one base year plus four one-year options) procures planned and corrective maintenance, technology assessment, healthcare consulting, and internal operations support across VA medical centers, outpatient clinics, and Veterans Integrated Service Network offices nationwide. Contractor personnel must meet specific education and experience requirements for roles including Biomedical Technicians, Information Systems Specialists, Medical Imaging Systems Specialists, Biomedical Engineers, and Project Managers, and obtain VA Contractor PIV badges within 120 days of commencement. The second award is a $5.5 million single-award Indefinite Delivery contract from Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 for Insurance Entry and Verification Buffer Support Services, running through September 29, 2029 with a $500,000 guaranteed minimum. Work encompasses insurance verification and eligibility buffer support for Consolidated Patient Account Center Revenue Operations locations nationwide, performed remotely from secure continental U.S. locations; the contract evaluates approximately 2.4 million annual actions including 643,200 reverification actions and 1.8 million new-policy actions. A third task order under the VISN 9 contract carries an additional $5.5 million ceiling. Both awards mandate HIPAA, FISMA, NIST, and Privacy Act compliance, with liquidated damages of $37.50 per affected individual for data breach incidents. The BETPSS contract uses primary NAICS 541611 (Administrative and General Management Consulting Services), while the insurance verification work spans both administrative consulting and professional technical services PSC categories. One award ($5.5 million) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, triggering recompete exposure in that window.
