Quick Summary
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director (OD) Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) intends to issue a sole-source modification to extend an existing GSA Task Order (TO) # 75N97021F00077 for Information Security Management Support Services. This extension is for 10 months and 15 days, from June 1, 2026, to April 16, 2027, to prevent a lapse in critical services.
Scope of Change
This justification outlines the need to extend the current contract to provide the Government with sufficient time to award a competitive recompete acquisition. The recompete is being developed under the evolving Foundational IT Centralization framework. The original timeline for the recompete was delayed due to unforeseen administrative priorities and the evolving scope of IT services. The proposed extension period is the minimum necessary to ensure continuity of services and allow for a potential transition period to the follow-on contract.
