Additional Details
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director (OD), Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives (DPCPS), Office of Strategic Coordination (OSC), has issued a presolicitation notice for a six-month bridge contract to provide critical IT services supporting the NIH Common Fund OSC SharePoint site and its associated sub-sites, including the Strategic Initiatives Database budget site and the Common Fund Budget Tracking Database (CFBTD). The bridge contract is intended to ensure uninterrupted operational continuity for these essential platforms while a competitive procurement process is prepared.
The scope of this procurement encompasses a range of IT services vital to the ongoing operations of the Common Fund, which supports research initiatives across NIH’s 27 Institutes and Centers (ICs). The SharePoint environment serves as a collaborative workspace for Working Groups (WGs) administering Common Fund programs, facilitating access to guidance, programmatic information, and budget tracking tools. The intended outcomes of this contract are to maintain, enhance, and support these web-based resources, ensuring seamless collaboration and information management for NIH staff.
Key requirements and expected deliverables include:
- Data warehousing and data mining to support information retrieval and analysis
- Web development and ongoing support for the SharePoint site and sub-sites
- Business intelligence services to inform decision-making
- Records and document management to ensure compliance and accessibility
- Communications management to facilitate internal collaboration
- Accessibility services, including compliance with Sections 508 and 504
- Requirements analysis, design, coding, and testing for system enhancements
- Production deployment of new features and updates
- Administrative and general decision support software to aid program management
The contract will be awarded on a sole source basis to LCG Systems, LLC, located at 6000 Executive Blvd, Suite 410, Rockville, Maryland, 20852. LCG Systems is the incumbent contractor, currently supporting NIH OSC under Contract No. HHSN316201200155W/75N98021F00004, which expires August 30, 2026. The agency has determined that only LCG Systems can meet the urgent need for operational continuity due to their deep familiarity with the Common Fund’s SharePoint architecture, custom configurations, workflows, integrations, and interdependencies. Transitioning to a new provider within the bridge period would pose significant risks, including delays in achieving operational capability, potential disruptions to internal communications and content management, and jeopardizing time-sensitive deliverables and regulatory deadlines.
The procurement is classified under NAICS code 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), with no set-aside requirements. The place of performance is Rockville, Maryland. The contracting entity is the OMAS Strategic Buying Center – Information Technology, a federal office within the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Financial Resources (ASFR).
