Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and SupplieS (FASTPASS) Innovative Solutions Opening
Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-160
The Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and Supplies (FASTPASS) program, under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-160, is an initiative by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to develop a near real-time, non-destructive, AI-enabled screening system. The goal is to identify contamination, adulteration, and quality defects in pharmaceutical products through their packaging at ports of entry and other supply-chain nodes using multi-modal sensing and data fusion. This 54-month program is structured into three 18-month phases, culminating in a fieldable platform with validated training materials and integrated documentation capabilities. This procurement is conducted as a multiple-award Other Transaction (OT) Agreement rather than a standard federal contract, meaning it is governed by specific OT articles instead of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Awards are based on the most advantageous proposals, with primary evaluation factors including innovation, soundness, execution planning, risk management, and team expertise. Payments are fixed and triggered by the successful completion of milestones, managed through the Payment Management System. Proposers must be registered in SAM.gov and provide detailed technical and cost proposals, including a milestone payment schedule and research security disclosures. Amendment 01 specifically updated the cost proposal narrative model and workbook to correct typographical errors and rename appendices.

Additionally, the need is expected to grow as CMS as well as OpDiv use increases. While special circumstances existed with the COVID-19 health emergency, there was an upward trend in usage of the contact vehicle overall. The Health FFRDC Operators continued growth of technical knowledge and program improvements along with increased stakeholder usage has shown that needs still exist. HHS' operating divisions are responsible for enhancing the health and well-being of all Americans, by providing for effective health and human services and by fostering sound, sustained advances in the sciences underlying medicine, public health and social services. Through the Health FFRDC contract vehicle, Alongside with HHS operating divisions the Health FFRDC performs research and analysis on various topics in the health domain and provides an enterprise approach to supporting achievement of the core missions of HHS, its various operating and staff divisions, and federal agencies outside of HHS (non-sponsoring agencies) that have healthcare missions. The Health FFRDC also supports the execution of the HHS overall strategic plan, policies and initiatives. To ensure that this research and development continues, the acquisition team seeks to award this contract so there is no lapse in work that supports high-profile, time sensitive needs (e.g. pandemic responses and preparations, bio-medical studies, etc.)
