DHA Contracting on behalf of the Defense Health Management Systems Program Executive Office (PEO DHMS) is pleased to invite you to attend an Industry Day focused on the upcoming Enterprise Software Solutions (ESS) Next initiative. This event is designed to foster collaboration and open communication between industry partners and the government, and will provide a unique opportunity for you to:


⦁          Learn about the ESS Next requirements


⦁          Engage in interactive discussions with government representatives to explore how your company's capabilities align with our needs


⦁          Ask questions and seek clarification on the initiative's objectives


⦁          Network with other industry professionals and government stakeholders


ESS Next aims to provide users with the digital and physical capabilities needed to support the development, testing, and delivery of digital products and applications for the Military Health System (MHS) Enterprise. Specifically, ESS Next will offer users access to a standardized list of service offerings from which they can seamlessly self-provision various digital, virtual, and physical services and capabilities. For example, services available for provisioning include, but are not limited to, software services (managed tools/technologies used to execute development and testing), infrastructure services (compute, network, storage), physical space and support services (physical area to perform testing in the Medical Enterprise Test Innovation Center (METIC), technical and logistical support to conduct Operational Assessment (OA) events), virtual desktop services, and containerization services (serverless compute engine). Ultimately, the goal of ESS Next is to transition existing services to a hybrid “everything as a service” model and ensure users are able to quickly access the tools they need to perform the development and testing of mission-critical products while providing the organization the flexibility to scale, innovate, and optimize costs.​


Industry Day slides will be posted to this announcement following the event.

Prototype development for Battlefield Wound Infection Prevention and Treatment (BWI P&T) Barrier Combination
Solicitation # HT9427-26-R-E020
The Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity is seeking a single award for the development of a Battlefield Wound Infection Prevention and Treatment Barrier Combination prototype. This product must integrate a physical wound barrier with antimicrobial and antifungal properties to prevent the spread of organisms and systemic infections in combat scenarios. The project aims to advance technologies from a preferred Technology Readiness Level of 5 or higher to a final state of TRL 7 or 8, culminating in mandatory U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval or clearance. The scope of work includes preclinical testing, human clinical trials, and the submission of regulatory packages such as New Drug Applications or Premarket Approval Applications. This procurement is conducted under prototype Other Transaction Authority 10 U.S.C. 4022, meaning standard FAR and DFARS regulations do not apply unless expressly referenced. The estimated period of performance is 48 months, divided into three primary objectives: prototype demonstration, clinical studies and regulatory submissions, and final FDA clearance. Proposals are due by November 6, 2026, and must be submitted in three distinct volumes covering technical approach, management capability, and administrative cost and price. To be eligible, offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management and meet specific criteria, such as being a nontraditional defense contractor or a small business.
