Department of Health and Human Services

As part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and by extension, HHS, NITAAC’s federal contracting organization has been key to providing HHS with all aspects of information technology products, services and solutions. From 2013 to date, you’ll find NITAAC has fulfilled 18,918 Task and Delivery Orders throughout the various agencies within HHS including CDC, FDA, NIH and others. 

As your HHS acquisitions portfolio continues to grow and change, one thing does not: NITAAC Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs). Whether you need Health IT, Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Cloud Solutions, Artificial Intelligence or other information technology goods and services, NITAAC can meet your requirements. A closer look at our history reveals that NITAAC:

• Already supports over $19* billion in HHS obligations
• Provides Assisted Acquisitions Services administered and awarded by Contracting Officers and specialists who were among the first to receive the new, mandatory, FAC-C Digital Services (DS) Certifications, which are now required on orders for the management of digital services over the FAR Subpart 13.500(c) commercial items threshold
• Features many Contract Holders who have cleared personnel, ready to support the federal government in a variety of positions that require access to sensitive information
• CIO-SP3 and CIO-SP3 Small Business GWACs have been extended through 10/29/24. Any task orders issued can have up to a 5-year period of performance, taking clients into FY30
• Will assure our customers always have a NITAAC contracting vehicle that accommodates their needs while CIO-SP4 is awarded and onboarded

NITAAC will do whatever it takes to assure our customers always have a NITAAC vehicle that can handle their requirements. While we hope we can avoid another extension, we are prepared to get one if circumstances dictate. Please check with us before making any comparable IT obligations.

• Awarding Task Orders in an average of 45 days or less; Delivery Orders in an average of 10 days (depending on complexity)
