Notice of Intent to Sole Source – Storage and shredding services for sensitive patient-related materials
Solicitation # NOI-CC-26-000033
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical Center has issued a Notice of Intent for a sole-source procurement under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 – Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This procurement covers secure storage and shredding services for sensitive patient-related materials generated by the Radiology and Imaging Services Division (RADIS/CC). The contract is intended to maintain and manage approximately 14,000 linear feet of archived film records accumulated over 20 years, continuing the existing relationship with Iron Mountain, a recognized industry leader in records management and secure shredding. This sole-source action is justified based on Iron Mountain’s unique capabilities and the prohibitive costs and operational disruption that would arise from transitioning these extensive patient records to another provider. The contract includes a base year plus four option years, enabling service continuity for up to five years, with an estimated potential contract ceiling under FAR 13.500(c) of up to $9 million or $15 million, although specific pricing details have not been disclosed. The acquisition is conducted in accordance with FAR 8.405-6 for limited-source procurements under the Federal Supply Schedule program, exempting it from full competition requirements under FAR Part 6. The contract emphasizes confidentiality, secure handling, and compliant shredding of protected health information in line with HIPAA standards, although no specific technical or packaging standards are cited. The place of performance and acceptance is Bethesda, Maryland, at the NIH Clinical Center. The designated point of contact for this procurement is Ryssa Nix, Contract Specialist at the NIH Office of Purchasing and Contracts. This procurement notice does not solicit quotations or bids; rather, it seeks comments to the announcement prior to the closing date.

Solicitation # NOI-CC-26-000808
The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (NIH-CC) intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to ArgonSoft for a 12-month software maintenance and support agreement for the proprietary ASIS.TO Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). This system, originally developed and installed by ArgonSoft under a prior contract, requires ongoing maintenance including gold-level support, installation of mandatory updates, minor upgrades, and execution of Installation Qualification and Operational Qualification (IQ/OQ) testing. The support services cover up to 200 hours annually, delivered remotely via phone, web, or online HelpDesk, and include bug fixes, urgent incident escalation, system customization (up to 100 hours), consultancy, training, and validation assistance. The place of performance is the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland with the contract period spanning January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026. This sole-source procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1 and 13.106-1 due to ArgonSoft’s exclusive ownership and licensing of the ASIS.TO software, making them the only responsible source capable of providing the required customized support and maintenance. Market research confirmed the lack of other qualified vendors. There are no competitive proposals solicited; however, capability statements may be considered if received by the specified deadline. The contract includes no physical packaging or labeling requirements since it involves software support. Inspection and acceptance occur at the NIH site based on adherence to delivery schedules, response times within two business days, and successful completion of IQ/OQ tests. The contract leverages NIH Clinical Center administrative offices for contract administration, though specifics about payment and invoicing mechanisms are not detailed. ArgonSoft is recognized as a small business under NAICS code 513210, and the agreement contains no options beyond the base year.
