AI Contract Overview
The Veterans Health Administration’s Office of Nursing Service is seeking enterprise-wide access to a nationally recognized nursing quality indicators database through a Firm Fixed Price Blanket Purchase Agreement to support benchmarking, system-level reporting, and alignment with the Magnet Recognition Program. The BPA will provide secure, web-based access to comprehensive dashboards tracking key nurse-sensitive metrics including nursing care hours per patient day, hospital-acquired infections like CLABSI and CAUTI, falls, pressure injuries, nurse turnover rates, annual nurse satisfaction survey results, and nurse education and certification data—all without requiring submission of Protected Health Information. Services are to be delivered off-site by a U.S.-based contractor, ensuring all VA data remains within the continental United States and complies with federal healthcare data security standards. The contract vehicle allows individual VA medical centers to issue Call Orders for consistent, scalable service delivery over a five-year ordering period, with monthly invoicing in arrears tied to performance verification by a Contracting Officer’s Representative and payment governed by the Prompt Payment Act. The procurement is being conducted as a sole source action under FAR 6.302-1, with Press Ganey Associates LLC identified as the intended awardee due to its unique capability to meet the VA’s specific needs for integrated nursing quality data and benchmarking. Despite the sole source intent, responsible sources may submit capability statements by June 16, 2026, to demonstrate their ability to satisfy all requirements outlined in the draft Performance Work Statement. Responses must be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist, include full SAM registration details (Company Name, CAGE Code, UEI, address, point of contact, and GSA contract number if applicable), and clearly label the subject line as specified. Contractor performance will be monitored through a formal Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan with strict standards for system uptime (99.5% monthly), report timeliness (95% on-time delivery by the 10th of each month), and data accuracy (98% error-free), with security incident reporting required within one business day. Upon closeout, the contractor must provide all VA-accessible data in exportable formats, and must offer transition support for up to 60 days after termination. Training, customer support, and ongoing technical assistance are also required during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays.
