This opportunity is designated as a non-commercial requirement, although the contracting office is open to feedback on whether commercial services could fulfill the need, requesting detailed rationale from interested parties. The contract falls under NAICS code 541611 and is managed by the Department of Health and Human Services’ Omas Strategic Buying Center. The place of performance is Washington, D.C., with responses due by May 8, 2026.
