The HRSA Office of Federal Assistance Management supports the Health Resources and Services Administration’s mission to improve access to essential health services for underserved and vulnerable populations through strategic procurement of specialized professional and technical services. Its core priorities center on strengthening behavioral health infrastructure, advancing health information technology systems, and enabling case management capabilities that serve separated families, mental health patients, and organ transplant networks. The agency focuses on modernizing digital platforms, enhancing data interoperability, and deploying tailored clinical support services to ensure equitable health outcomes across the nation.
Procurement activity is dominated by professional, scientific, and technical services, particularly in information technology modernization, custom software development, and behavioral health program support. The agency frequently utilizes combined solicitations and Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) to streamline acquisition of long-term, complex services. Recent efforts reflect a preference for integrated, end-to-end solutions that align with federal health IT standards and scalability requirements, often targeting cloud-based infrastructure and system migration initiatives.
The agency primarily targets NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), 541990 (Other Professional Services), and 621330 (Mental Health Practitioners), reflecting its reliance on specialized IT and behavioral health expertise. It actively employs Small Business Administration (SBA) set-asides for select contracts, signaling a commitment to fostering small business participation in critical health support functions. Vendor relationships are built around technical proficiency in health systems, compliance with federal data standards, and demonstrated experience in public health service delivery.
As a component of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Resources and Services Administration, this office operates nationwide to coordinate federal assistance through targeted procurement vehicles, including BPAs, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts, and sources-sought notices. It does not maintain a physical headquarters but functions as a centralized procurement hub supporting HRSA’s distributed grant and service delivery network.
