This increase is necessary to ensure the continued functionality and optimal performance of the Planon ProCenter system, which is critical to the operations of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The specialized knowledge required for the maintenance services can only be provided by the incumbent contractor, as integrating a new software solution would incur substantial costs and delays. Interested parties can reach out to Ashley Riggs at ashley.riggs@nih.gov or 240-858-7852 for further information, with the acquisition being processed under FAR Part 12 and a justification and award notice to be posted within 14 days upon award.
