Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source
\n\nThe Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) plans to award a contract without competition to Interlace Intelligence, LLC.
\n\nTitle: Utilization Patterns and Billing Integrity Analysis
\n\nBackground
\n\nThe mission of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is to enhance the health and well-being of all Americans, by providing for effective health and human services and by fostering sound, sustained advances in the sciences underlying medicine, public health, and social services.
\n\nHHS oversees federal health programs and the providers and facilities that bill them. Administrative claims data can characterize how a category of care is delivered and can surface billing patterns that merit investigation.
\n\nThe Contractor shall provide ongoing analytic support across two domains: (1) drug safety, patient safety, and program-integrity research and (2) a comprehensive retrospective safety evaluation with framework for ongoing surveillance and targeted prospective study. The Contractor will return written analyses stating what was found, how it was found, and what the analysis does and does not establish. HHS retains responsibility for any investigation, validation, determination, or action.
\n\nScope of Work is provided in the attached Draft SOW
\n\nEstimated Contract Period: Base Period plus one twelve-month Option Period
\n\nHHS believes only one company, Interlace Intelligence, LLC., can currently meet this need, under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.103-1.
\n\nResponses
\n\nIf your organization believes it can provide these services, you may respond to the Request for Information, attached as RFI, to show capability.
\n\nSend your statement to: Olivia Barksdale, Contract Specialist at olivia.barksdale@hhs.gov
\n\nReference number: REQT-OMAS-MS-2027-00007
\n\nDeadline: 12:00 P.M. ET on October 20, 2026
\n\nWhether to compete this contract is entirely at the Government's discretion, and any responses received will be used only to help make that determination. This notice does not obligate the Government to award a contract, pay for information submitted, acknowledge receipt, or provide feedback on any response.
\n\nResponses should be complete and sufficiently detailed, and must not include proprietary, classified, confidential, or sensitive information. The Government may use any non-proprietary technical information provided for any purpose it deems necessary and legally appropriate.
\n\nIf a competitive solicitation results from this notice, it will be posted on SAM.gov in accordance with FAR Part 5; however, responses to this notice will not count as responses to that future solicitation.
