DA10--(NEW) (RFI) - Emergent Virtual Face-to-Face (VF2F) Network (VA-26-00045329)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number 36C10B26Q0226 to identify qualified industry partners for the design, implementation, and operation of a national Emergent Virtual Face-to-Face (VF2F) Network. This initiative aims to provide on-demand virtual care for over 6 million Veterans, specifically targeting those in rural areas to reduce emergency room crowding and improve access to urgent and emergent care. The scope of work encompasses a modular approach to the virtual care journey, including intake and triage, clinical encounters, medical ordering, and care coordination. The government is seeking solutions that leverage artificial intelligence, home-based diagnostics, and software platforms to provide 24/7/365 access across all U.S. states and territories, while ensuring interoperability with existing VHA systems and managing provider state licensure. This RFI is for market research and planning purposes only; it does not constitute a solicitation or an obligation to purchase, and the final acquisition strategy remains undetermined. Interested vendors must submit a capability package not exceeding 15 pages by April 10, 2026, at 5:00 PM EST. Submissions must include detailed company identification, SAM and CAGE codes, socioeconomic status, and a specific response to the requirements outlined in the project attachments. The government explicitly prohibits the use of marketing materials or generic capability statements. Responses should be emailed to Contracting Officer John Vardouniotis and Contract Specialist Elena Juliano, with the subject line Emergent Virtual Face-to-Face Network.
