Notice of Intent to Sole Source – GE Healthcare
Solicitation # 26-009252
The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center Department of Nursing intends to award a firm fixed price sole source purchase order to GE Healthcare Inc. for the acquisition of an ICU ventilator. The procurement specifically targets the Hamilton C6 Ventilator Package and H900 Heater Package, including various clinical applications, accessories, and training. This equipment is required for medical and research purposes at the facility in Bethesda, Maryland. GE Healthcare is identified as the sole source because the Hamilton C6 is already integrated with the NIH electronic medical record system. Due to proprietary hardware and software interfaces, utilizing a different manufacturer would necessitate significant system modifications, revalidation, and staff retraining, which could disrupt operations. This acquisition is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and interested parties have until August 20, 2026, to submit comments or identify their capabilities.

Getting to Zero HIV Transmission Through Enhanced LEN for PrEP (HELP) Study
Solicitation # 26-000806
The National Institutes of Health intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed price purchase order to the University of Maryland Baltimore for additional services during Option Year 4 of Contract 75N90022C00017, under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1), as only one responsible source exists and no other services can meet the agency’s requirements. This action is not a solicitation for competitive bids but a Notice of Intent to negotiate non-competitively for the continuation of the Getting to Zero HIV Transmission Through Enhanced LEN for PrEP (HELP) Study, a five-year multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate an adaptive intervention to improve long-acting injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis adherence and retention. The study will operate across three geographic nodes in Washington, DC, Baltimore, Maryland, and West Virginia, with potential for adjustments based on consultation with the Contracting Officer’s Representative. The primary objective is to design and implement the adaptive intervention within the first 12 to 18 months of the project using the EPIS implementation science framework, focusing on coalition building and localized strategies to enhance uptake and sustained use of LEN. The performance period is one year, with an anticipated effective date of September 15, 2026. Though this notice does not obligate the government to award a contract or compensate respondents, all responsible parties may submit a capability statement by August 20, 2026, to be considered for potential inclusion in the government’s determination of sole source justification. Responses must be comprehensive enough to assess the respondent’s ability to perform the required work, but the government reserves the right to use any submitted information as it deems necessary and legally appropriate, without obligation to acknowledge receipt or provide feedback. The acquisition is classified under NAICS code 54199, managed by the NIH Office in Bethesda, Maryland, with Susan Nsangou as the point of contact for inquiries.

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.
