    The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval for a sole-source procurement of Technical and Operational Support Services for the Health Partner Ordering Portal (HPOP), primarily utilizing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This platform facilitates the electronic ordering and distribution of Medical Countermeasures (MCMs) during public health emergencies. The request covers a base contract period from September 30, 2024, to September 29, 2025, with three additional options extending through 2028. The justification for no competition hinges on Oracle being the only source capable of maintaining and supporting its proprietary system, which is crucial for timely MCM delivery. Transitioning to a new vendor would yield significant delays in service and increase costs substantially. A Request for Information (RFI) yielded no responses from Oracle vendors, further validating the need for a single-source approach. The procurement will be set aside for small businesses authorized to sell Oracle products, with ongoing market research planned to explore future competition. The urgency for maintaining service continuity during ongoing health emergencies underlines the critical nature of this procurement effort, safeguarding the government's ability to respond effectively in crises.
