AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, Department of Clinical Research Informatics, is seeking quotes for the renewal of Atlassian Jira Software and Confluence enterprise licenses, maintenance, and technical support. This sole-source acquisition, processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, is critical for maintaining IT governance, quality management, and regulatory compliance. The software supports FDA-validated workflows for clinical manufacturing and manages High-Valued Asset documentation under FISMA standards. Migrating to an alternative platform is deemed unacceptable due to the substantial cost and time required for re-validation and the risk of disrupting life-saving clinical research protocols. The requirement includes Data Center licenses for 100 users of Jira Software, Jira Workflow Toolbox, ScriptRunner, and Message Field, as well as Confluence for 250 users. The period of performance runs from December 31, 2025, to December 30, 2026, with potential one-year option periods. Offerors must be official authorized resellers and provide Tier 3 vendor technical support and security patches within 15 business days of release. The government intends to award a firm-fixed-price order based on a best-value determination, evaluating technical capability, price, and past performance. Quotes must be submitted electronically to the designated point of contact by January 14, 2026, at 4:00 PM EST.

Acquisition Description:
This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This acquisition will be made in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6 “Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and solicitation for commercial Items,” as applicable, and as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation (a written solicitation will not be issued) and quotes are being requested.
This acquisition will be processed under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2024-04.
The Solicitation number is RFQ-CC-26-000701 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ).
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical Center (CC), Department of Clinical Research Informatics (DCRI), utilizes Atlassian Jira Software and Confluence as core platforms for IT Governance, Quality Management, and critical system documentation. The continuity of these platforms is essential for regulatory compliance and system stability. A renewal of this software is required.
Justification: The Jira workflows supporting Master Control and clinical manufacturing have been rigorously developed, configured, tested, and validated to meet stringent FDA audit and compliance standards. Migrating this workflow to a different platform would require a complete re-validation of the new system, including drafting new System Security Plans (SSPs), developing new audit trails, training all affected staff (including Quality Assurance and Clinical Manufacturing personnel), and re-integrating with Master Control. The estimated cost and time associated with this re-validation and regulatory approval process would result in substantial duplication of cost and unacceptable delays to ongoing, life-saving clinical research protocols.
