Criteria Development (PCMH)

The Indian Health Service is forecasting the development of a new criteria service designed to be integrated into Health Systems Planning software, specifically under the PCMH initiative. This effort aims to enhance clinical and operational planning capabilities by introducing standardized, evidence-based criteria that support improved healthcare delivery models within tribal and federal health systems. The North American Industry Classification System code 621999 indicates this work falls under other ambulatory health care services, suggesting a focus on administrative and technical innovation rather than direct patient care. The opportunity is open to interested vendors, with no set-aside classification specified, allowing all eligible businesses to respond when the formal solicitation is issued. The point of contact for program-related inquiries is Omobogie Amadasu, reachable via email, while the contracting officer position remains unassigned as of the posting date. There is no specified location for performance, indicating the work may be performed remotely or across multiple sites under the Indian Health Service’s national scope. The forecast, posted in May 2026, serves as an advance notice to allow industry stakeholders time to prepare proposals, though no formal solicitation number or deadline has been provided yet. Interested parties are directed to the official HHS opportunity forecast portal for updates and future details on the formal procurement process.
