RFP Updates: $14B VHA Integrated Healthcare Transformation (IHT) 2.0 IDIQ

Updated April 27, 2024

The VA’s SAC continues to work hard to engage and communicate with bidders on this important IDIQ contract, this time sharing a list of some of the firms who made the Phase II cut and are open to partner discussions, This is a small sampling of

“Within emails providing advisory notices to Phase I offerors, the Government invited those assessed (positive and negative) to voluntarily submit POC and company information. The purpose of opting-in is to make known their company’s intention to propose as a prime contractor in Phase II. Other companies can then reference this list when seeking to join a VIT for a Phase II proposal. The list of contacts provided is not an all-inclusive list of every potential Phase II Offeror (considerably more advisory notices were sent than those companies that opted-in) and does not represent the official proposal intention required by the RFP. Inclusion on this courtesy list does not represent perceived standing, viability results, or any other endorsement by the Government. The list is provided only as a courtesy to companies seeking partnerships with potential Phase II prime offerors.

Added February 23, 2024

Notice ID: 36C10X24R0026

The Office of Healthcare Transformation (OHT) is charged with leading multiple initiatives associated with leadership priorities. OHT currently has 160 FTE and supports over 60 projects, including major transformational initiatives, to best accomplish VHA’s mission and strategic goals, and priorities. Much of this work is complex and agile and is aligned with leadership priorities.

The high priority, complex, rapid response legislative and political drivers of much of the work of the VHA and supported by OHT continues to evolve as does the need to quickly leverage contract support for specialized healthcare professional services on a task order to aid in meeting these requirements.

Given the nature of OHT’s mission, work will require expertise supporting projects within the following Functional Categories and Capability Areas:

• Health System Transformation and Innovation,
• Implementation and Operations Support,
• Healthcare Business Enabling Services, and
• Health Informatics.

…Much of this work is complex and agile. Multiple activities, both internal to OHT and in collaboration with external VHA program offices, require the contractor to provide services across combinations of Functional Categories I, II and III, with potential for some simulation and agile methodology services under Functional Category IV. OHT responsibilities include Enterprise Program and Project Management Implementation, many driven by Presidential and Congressional mandates, policy changes, and other legislation.

Primary labor categories will include program management and program implementation resources; health systems subject matter experts; communication experts; program analysts, change management specialists, and specialized subject matter experts. Through its program management and implementation support and project specific assessments and reports, contractor will provide direct expert recommendations to support the further development and provision of program management best practices, program implementation, program evaluation, change management implementation, and business processes, standards, and procedures under the auspice of the various emerging programs listed below.

The anticipated official release of the Request for Proposal is March 14, 2024.

This is a 100% set aside. While eligible SDVOSBs may submit offers alone, the Government anticipates numerous teaming partners (SDVOSB and otherwise) will be necessary to successfully provide support.

No Questions or responses will be taken from this draft solicitation.
