AI Pilot Tool

The AI Pilot Tool contract, identified by solicitation number 75N98026R00006, is a sole-source, firm-fixed-price acquisition awarded to PaxeraHealth Corp by the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Mission Acquisition Solutions through the Omas Strategic Buying Center - Information Technology. Initiated under FAR Part 12 and Subpart 13.5 as a commercial item acquisition, the contract supports the deployment of PaxeraHealth’s proprietary ARK AI Pilot platform within the NIH Biowulf High-Performance Computing environment located in Bethesda, Maryland. The primary objective is to integrate an AI-driven medical imaging analytics solution with existing Picture Archiving and Communication Systems using DICOM standards, ensuring secure handling of protected health information in compliance with HIPAA and NIST SP 800-53 requirements. The performance period spans twelve months from April 1, 2026, to March 31, 2027, with all work to be conducted on-site at Building 12A, 12 South Dr., Bethesda, MD 20814. The scope encompasses system integration, validation testing, training delivery, and ongoing technical support, with mandatory deliverables including a kickoff meeting, bi-weekly progress meetings, integration test plans and results, monthly performance reports, and a final pilot summary. Key personnel requirements mandate a designated Project Manager to oversee execution, risk mitigation, and stakeholder coordination. Acceptance is contingent upon successful verification of interoperability, algorithmic performance, data security, and documentation completeness, with the Government retaining full authority to inspect and formally accept all deliverables at the performance site. Although the contract type is firm-fixed-price, no pricing details are provided in the documentation, with all line items marked as TBD, and no accounting data, payment instructions, or invoicing procedures are specified. The sole-source justification cites market research, prior SAM.gov notice, and the uniqueness of the ARK AI Pilot platform as the basis for non-competitive award, while critical elements such as evaluation factors, representations from the contractor, and detailed contract clauses are absent from the provided materials. The contracting officer is Julie Rodriguez, with Jordan Neal as the primary point of contact, though no COR or COTR are named, and no formal representations or certifications from PaxeraHealth are included.
