Solicitation # 7571TE26Q00254
The Department of Health and Human Services, through the Office of Mission Acquisition Solutions on behalf of the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract to Genedata (USA), Inc. for a 12-month renewal of the Genedata Analyst bioinformatics software. This acquisition is conducted under FAR Part 12 for commercial products and FAR Part 6.103-1, identifying Genedata as the only responsible source capable of meeting the requirements. The software is essential for the Viral Pathogenesis and Evolution Section to maintain continuity in its research on respiratory viral disease, vaccine development, and antiviral therapies, specifically by utilizing over 100 million historical gene-expression data points. Genedata Analyst provides critical capabilities for the statistical modeling of multi-omics data, including linear and nonlinear normalization methods such as LOWESS and Quantile Normalization. The software supports advanced analytical functions including parametric and non-parametric testing, mixed linear models, Principal Components Analysis, and machine learning tools like Decision Trees and Partial Least Square analysis. Additionally, it offers interactive visualization tools such as heat maps, scatter plots, and tree maps to support the identification of biomarkers and biological network characterization. The government is seeking capability statements from interested parties by September 14, 2026, to determine if a competitive procurement is warranted.

The National Institutes of Health, Office of the Director, through the Office of Acquisitions and Logistics Management, intends to award a sole source contract to HemaTerra Technologies, LLC d/b/a InVita Healthcare Technologies, Inc. for software maintenance, support, and server upgrade services for HemaConnect, HemaComply-Lab Manager, and HemaComply-Lab Equipment Manager. These systems are critical to managing donor information, patient data, and quality control within the Department of Transfusion Medicine, and the contract will involve upgrading the local server environment, migrating databases, implementing MySQL 8, and deploying updated software versions to ensure uninterrupted operations. Due to the proprietary nature of the software and the fact that InVita is the original developer and sole owner of the intellectual property, no other entity possesses the necessary technical expertise or authorization to perform these services without risking system integrity or patient safety. The acquisition is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) as a sole source requirement because InVita is the only responsible source with exclusive rights to the systems, and any attempt to award to another vendor would lead to unacceptable delays, substantial cost duplication, and potential operational disruption. The contract will not be open to competition, though interested parties may submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to support the proprietary systems by May 3, 2026. Such submissions must include evidence of technical authorization, relevant past performance, and proficiency in software upgrades and system validation. The point of contact for inquiries is Shasheshe Goolsby of the Hospital and Laboratory Support Division, and the work will be performed at the NIH facility in Bethesda, Maryland. This notice is purely informational and does not constitute a solicitation for competitive bids.
