The Defense Health Agency (DHA), through the Enterprise Information and Data Solutions (EIDS) Program Management Office, is seeking commercial solutions for the operations, modernization, and development of the Data Exchange Platform (DxP). This platform is critical for military health readiness and patient care, facilitating secure, standards-based interoperability and real-time clinical data exchange between the DHA, Department of Veterans Affairs, and other federal healthcare partners. The primary objective is to maintain 24x7 operational availability for legacy systems, including Data Exchange Services, the Clinical Health Data Repository, and the Access Control Services Data Access Layer, while transitioning these services toward a cloud-native, API-driven, and AI/ML-ready architecture utilizing containerized RESTful microservices. This opportunity is published as Area of Interest (AOI) #02 under Commercial Solutions Opening HT003826SC005. The government will utilize a multi-phase assessment process, beginning with a Phase I written technical solution brief, to determine the most appropriate acquisition pathway, which may include a FAR-based contract or a prototype other transaction agreement. The anticipated period of performance includes a 12-month base period with subsequent option periods based on milestone completion. Performance will be conducted at contractor facilities with remote work authorized. Technical requirements emphasize strict adherence to DoD Instruction 8510.01 (RMF), Zero Trust frameworks, and DHA cloud security rules. All contractor personnel must be U.S. citizens with appropriate security clearances (Tier 1, 2, or 3). Interested vendors must submit Phase I responses, including a technical solution brief, a draft SOO crosswalk, a proposed performance-based work statement, and an organizational conflict of interest mitigation plan, to Lacey Lockard by October 28, 2026, at 1400 Eastern Time.

Full Description

Show more
The authority is FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(C): - The order must be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency because it is a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order. The initial procurement was competed among all eligible Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contractors using FAR 16.505 procedures whereby Patriot, LLC was selected for this requirement. Patriot, LLC is the contractor best acquainted with the needs of the Department and is familiar with the current support services being provided. Having another contractor assume the current services, without adequate time for a comprehensive transition would create an administrative burden for the Department and the customers served, create a loss of service, and reduce operational capabilities. It is cost-effective, efficient, and timely to maintain the current support for no more than a year to allow the Department to refine requirements, conduct competition, and smoothly transition to a new vendor.
