Secondary PACS Replacement

The Indian Health Service has issued a forecast for the replacement of the secondary PACS storage server, identified by the reference 2025-AAP-GSU-IT-0003, aimed at upgrading second-tier backup storage infrastructure. This initiative falls under the NAICS code 334111, which corresponds to computer and peripheral equipment manufacturing, signaling a procurement focused on hardware and system upgrades to enhance data reliability and storage capacity for critical medical imaging systems. The forecast was posted on May 25, 2026, and is intended to inform industry partners of an upcoming opportunity, though no solicitation number has been assigned yet. The place of performance and specific location details have not been provided, indicating flexibility in deployment or that final logistics are pending further planning. Point of contact for the opportunity includes Aaron Yuselew as the Program Point of Contact, reachable at aaron.yuselew@ihs.gov, and Misty Billy as the Contracting Officer, who can be reached at misty.bily@ihs.gov. The contract is not currently set aside for any specific small business category, and no details on set-aside type or organization type are specified. Interested parties are directed to the HHS OSDBU website for additional information, as the forecast serves as a pre-solicitation notice to allow vendors time to prepare responses for what will likely become a formal procurement process. The upgrade is essential to maintaining continuity and data integrity within the agency’s medical imaging operations, particularly as PACS systems rely on robust, redundant backup infrastructure.
