- SOURCES SOUGHT/REQUEST FOR INFORMATION INTRODUCTION: In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.215-3, "Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes" This Sources Sought/Request for Information (SS/RFI) is for information and planning purposes only at this time and shall not be construed as a solicitation or as an obligation on the part of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Although "proposal" and/or "Offeror" may be used in this SS/RFI, any response will be treated as information only. REQUIREMENT: The VHA, PCAC is in the process of planning a procurement in which a contractor will be required to provide non-personal services to support Terminology Standards for the Office of Informatics and Analytics (OIA). The contractor shall conduct, coordinate, and collaborate on terminology standards activities within and beyond VA including knowledge management, creating, organizing, integrating, maintaining and harmonizing perpetually licensed or open source healthcare terminologies. The purpose is to enable computational capability, and to contribute to a framework that provides cognitive and decision support for Veteran's health, research, quality improvement, public health, and long range planning activities (see ATTACHMENT 2). The Government anticipates soliciting a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), single award, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for a period of 12 months with four (4) one (1) year option periods. It is anticipated that the IDIQ contract will include a combination of general requirements that will be further defined in individual task orders and detailed requirements at fixed, unit prices to facilitate the ordering process. Overall, requirements may fall within one specific functional area in the draft PWS but in many cases, the requirements will encompass and apply across multiple functional areas to provide the total terminology lifecycle solution. PURPOSE: The VA is conducting market research and is seeking written responses with information to assist the Government with identifying potential sources that are interested in and capable of performing the work described in the draft PWS. The Government is also seeking to obtain industry comments and questions regarding the draft PWS. DISCLAIMER: This SS/RFI notice is issued solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or obligation on the part of the Government. Per FAR 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not considered offers, shall not be used as a proposal, and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Neither unsolicited proposals nor any other kinds of offers will be considered in response to this notice. No evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents; however, the Government does reserve the right to contact any respondent and/or respondent reference to obtain additional information. At this time no solicitation exists; therefore, please do not request a copy of the solicitation.
