The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through the Office of Mission Acquisition Solutions and the Office on Women’s Health, is seeking input from small businesses with demonstrated expertise in women’s health, longitudinal data analysis, and large-scale quality improvement initiatives to support a future acquisition aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality among midlife and menopausal women. The initiative intends to integrate national inpatient and outpatient health data with multi-site learning collaboratives to enhance evidence-based care in two key areas: improving breast cancer screening processes and diagnostic follow-up, and reducing recurrent urinary tract infections and their severe complications through appropriate vaginal estrogen therapy. The government is specifically interested in identifying small businesses, including HUBZone, 8(a), woman-owned, veteran-owned, and other small disadvantaged firms, that possess direct access to nationally representative health datasets, proven experience in health systems engagement, and the capacity to design and manage data-driven quality improvement programs with minimal burden on participating providers. Responses must demonstrate clear capability in accessing and securely managing complex health data sources—including claims, electronic health records, pharmacy, lab, and imaging data—and using advanced statistical and implementation science methods to analyze care patterns, outcomes, and disparities across demographic and geographic variables. Companies must show experience in operating large learning collaboratives, developing standardized measurement tools and dashboards, translating research into actionable clinical and policy tools, and producing dissemination products such as provider education materials and public health guidance. Firms must clearly state their small business status as validated in SAM, provide their DUNS number, point of contact information, GSA Schedule or procurement vehicle details, and evidence of an approved accounting system. Responses must not exceed five pages and must be submitted by August 17, 2026; submissions will not be acknowledged, returned, or used for future solicitations unless properly structured and sufficiently detailed to inform the government’s acquisition strategy. Proprietary or sensitive information must not be included, and all submissions will be treated as non-confidential for planning purposes.

Purpose of Notice


The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Office of Mission Acquisition Solutions (OMAS), Office on Women’s Health (OWH), seeks to identify qualified organizations capable of accessing a national inpatient and outpatient database to conduct ongoing longitudinal statistical analyses and to establish and manage healthcare-related quality improvement learning collaboratives to support measurement of the impact of evidence-based interventions on outcomes for midlife and menopausal women.


This Sources Sought Notice is intended to assess the availability and interest of potential small businesses with expertise in women’s health, data analysis, clinical implementation, health systems engagement, development and implementation of large quality improvement collaboratives, and evaluation of interventions involving breast cancer screening and reduction of UTI-related outcomes through vaginal estrogen therapy. This work requires access to large, nationally representative inpatient and outpatient data sets.


This is a Small Business Sources Sought notice. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding: (1) the availability and capability of qualified small business sources; (2) whether they are small businesses; HUBZone small businesses; service-disabled, veteran-owned small businesses; 8(a) small businesses; veteran-owned small businesses; woman-owned small businesses; or small disadvantaged businesses; and (3) their size classification relative to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for the proposed acquisition. Your responses to the information requested will assist the Government in determining the appropriate acquisition method, including whether a set-aside is possible. An organization that is not considered a small business under the applicable NAICS code should not submit a response to this notice.


The purpose of this Sources Sought Notice is to identify capable sources and obtain industry input on the feasibility, scope, sequencing, data requirements, implementation approach, risks, and acquisition structure for the contemplated initiative.


The aim of this initiative is to promote healthy aging and wellness and to reduce morbidity and mortality among midlife and menopausal women by strengthening breast cancer screening and early detection and preventing complications associated with recurrent urinary tract infections.



Responses should help HHS determine:


  • Whether capable small business sources exist for the combined requirement, for either workstream separately, or for defined portions of a workstream.
  • The availability, validity, timeliness, and licensing constraints of national or nationally generalizable inpatient and outpatient data needed for the contemplated analyses.
  • Whether available data can validly identify the midlife and menopausal target population, breast screening modality and purpose, recurrent UTI, clinically appropriate vaginal estrogen use, sepsis, hospitalization, and mortality.
  • The feasible size, composition, recruitment timeline, data burden, and operating model for the contemplated health care quality improvement learning collaboratives.
  • Appropriate contract structure, period of performance, contract type, contract vehicle, data licensing model, and Government-furnished resources.
  • Potential barriers to competition, including data ownership, licensing restrictions, proprietary analytic platforms, conflicts of interest, site recruitment dependencies, and specialized clinical expertise.


The following section describes the program objectives and scope for which HHS seeks industry feedback.



PROGRAM OVERVIEW



The contemplated initiative would integrate national longitudinal data analysis with multi-site quality-improvement learning collaboratives to strengthen evidence-based care and improve outcomes for women in midlife and through the menopausal transition. HHS is considering two distinct workstreams:


  • Workstream 1 - Breast Cancer Screening and Diagnostic Follow-up: improve appropriate screening, access, modality selection, follow-up after abnormal findings, diagnostic resolution, and early cancer identification.
  • Workstream 2 - Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) and Severe Outcome Reduction: improve evidence-based prevention and management of recurrent UTI, including appropriate use of vaginal estrogen among clinically eligible peri- and postmenopausal patients, and evaluate recurrent infection, acute care use, sepsis, hospitalization, and mortality.


The final scope, sequence, measures, data requirements, and acquisition structure may be refined based on market research responses.

BACKGROUND



Breast Cancer Screening and Diagnostic Follow-up



Breast cancer risk generally increases with age. Mammography is the principal population-based screening modality, while other imaging may be used based on individual risk, breast density, prior findings, symptoms, and clinical judgment. The contemplated work would examine utilization and outcomes across digital mammography and breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when supported by available data. Analyses should distinguish screening, supplemental screening, diagnostic evaluation, and surveillance and should assess timely follow-up and diagnostic resolution after abnormal findings.



Because screening recommendations differ by population and risk profile, and evidence gaps remain for some supplemental imaging strategies, HHS intends to identify the applicable guideline set, target population, and measure specifications in any future solicitation.



Recurrent UTI and Severe Outcomes



Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common and burdensome among peri- and postmenopausal women. Inaccurate diagnosis and unnecessary treatment can increase antibiotic exposure, while recurrent or systemic infection may lead to emergency department use, hospitalization, sepsis, intensive care, and other adverse outcomes. Vaginal estrogen is an evidence-based preventive option for clinically appropriate peri- and postmenopausal patients with recurrent UTI when no contraindication exists and after clinician-patient shared decision-making.



The contemplated work would assess national care patterns, implementation barriers, recurrence, treatment and prevention strategies, acute care use, and downstream outcomes. Analytic plans should distinguish association from causation, address confounding and selection bias, and describe the validity and limitations of data-derived clinical definitions.



PROGRAM GOALS AND ANTICPATED SCOPE
 


  1. Cross-Cutting
    • Conduct comprehensive analysis utilizing large nationally representative database(s) containing inpatient, outpatient, laboratory, radiology, and pharmacy health data relevant to both workstreams.
    • Assess care and outcome variation by age, menopausal status, race and ethnicity, geography, rurality, payer, and other relevant population characteristics.
    • Establish and operate large scale quality improvement learning collaboratives to identify, test, refine, and scale reliable practices and implementation strategies.
    • Build a national evidence base on care patterns, outcomes, and opportunities for improvement during midlife and the menopause transition.
    • Translate evidence into scalable clinical and operational practices through learning collaboratives, quality improvement, implementation support, and stakeholder engagement.
    • Produce actionable findings that can inform HHS policy, program development, provider education, public health initiatives, and future research or evaluation activities.


  1. Workstream 1: Improve Breast Cancer Screening and Detection
    • Improve breast cancer screening and detection and reduce associated mortality and morbidity among women.
    • Analyze utilization, patterns, and outcomes for mammography, MRI, and related diagnostic services when feasible.
    • Distinguish screening, supplemental screening, diagnostic evaluation, surveillance, patient risk, breast density, and reason for service to the extent supported by the data.
    • Assess receipt of screening consistent with HHS-specified recommendations, access to screening, follow-up after abnormal findings, time to diagnostic resolution, cancer identification, stage or severity at diagnosis, and downstream outcomes.
    • Develop or configure a standardized data model, measure set, data collection approach, dashboard, and reporting process for participating organizations while minimizing local data collection burden.
    • Identify, test, refine, and scale interventions such as patient outreach, risk assessment, navigation, scheduling, referral management, data exchange, and closed-loop follow-up.
    • Provide feasible pathways for improving screening access, appropriate modality selection, diagnostic resolution, and early cancer identification.


  1. Workstream 2: UTI and Sepsis Reduction

  • Reduce adverse outcomes, including recurrent infection, emergency department use, hospital admission, sepsis, intensive care utilization, and mortality, among midlife and menopausal women at risk for UTIs or experiencing recurrent UTIs
  • Conduct national longitudinal analyses to characterize UTI burden, recurrence, diagnostic and treatment patterns, prevention strategies, vaginal estrogen utilization, complications, emergency department use, hospitalization, sepsis, intensive care use, and mortality.
  • Develop and validate operational definitions for recurrent UTI, localized versus systemic infection, clinically eligible populations, vaginal estrogen exposure, contraindications or exclusions when observable, and relevant outcomes.
  • Advance evidence-based interventions, care pathways, appropriate vaginal estrogen use, patient and provider education, referrals, and follow-up.
  • Assess variation in access, prescribing, treatment, and outcomes and identify strategies to improve reliable implementation.
  • Develop and disseminate implementation tools, provider education, patient-facing materials, and policy-relevant findings.

This action is justified under Federal Acquisition Regulations due to the exclusive capability of BD Biosciences as the original equipment manufacturer to provide authorized service using certified factory-trained technicians and genuine OEM parts, including proprietary software updates that no other provider can access or implement. The solicitation is scheduled for August 4, 2026, with an anticipated award date of August 19, 2026, under solicitation number NIH-NCI-0819, and is classified under NAICS code 811210 for medical equipment repair and maintenance. The contract will be managed by the Program Support Center Acquisition Management Service, with performance located at the Center for Immuno-Oncology in Bethesda, Maryland, and administrative oversight based in Rockville. No set-aside provisions will apply, and the contract is being issued on a sole-source basis because only BD Biosciences has the technical authority, parts, and software licensing required to maintain the specific models in use. All maintenance work must be performed to OEM standards with certified components to ensure continued operational integrity, regulatory compliance, and data accuracy critical to the research environment.
