Intent to Sole Source Modification

The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the Indian Health Service (IHS), has announced an intent to award a sole source modification to UpToDate, Inc. under Contract No. 75H70522P00055. This modification aims to add additional IHS Area Office sites to the existing contract, ensuring the continuity of essential health services that support IHS mission objectives, in alignment with Executive Orders related to contract reduction initiatives. The incumbent contractor is critical for maintaining system continuity due to their proprietary data rights and specialized technical certifications necessary for compliance with HHS and IHS security frameworks. Interested parties may submit evidence of their capability to meet the outlined requirements to the primary contact, Karen McDonald, at karen.mcdonald@ihs.gov, before 5:00 PM CST on November 30, 2025, as late submissions will not be evaluated.
