The Indian Health Service is forecasting a requirement for IT security support services focused on its OEHE web applications, with the solicitation anticipated to be released under NAICS code 541513 for other computer-related services. The primary objective is to ensure the ongoing security, integrity, and resilience of web-based systems critical to the agency’s operations, likely involving vulnerability assessments, threat monitoring, patch management, compliance audits, and incident response support. The point of contact for program-related inquiries is Kavita Verghis, reachable via email at kavita.verghis@ihs.gov, while the contracting officer position remains unassigned as of the posting date of May 25, 2026. The performance location for this effort has not been specified in the forecast, indicating potential flexibility or remote work eligibility for the contractor, though all services will directly support the Indian Health Service’s digital infrastructure. There is no set-aside designation indicated, meaning the opportunity is open to all eligible businesses regardless of size or ownership status. The forecast is intended to provide industry visibility into upcoming procurement activity, allowing potential vendors to prepare proposals and align capabilities with the agency’s cybersecurity needs.
