The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Program Contracting Activity Central is issuing a Sources‑Sought/RFI (Solicitation No. 36C77626Q0189) to gather market information for a future Firm‑Fixed‑Price, single‑award contract to provide an enterprise‑wide, commercial‑off‑the‑shelf online drug information resource (Pharma Drug Database Subscription). The required Online Drug Information Resource (ODIR) must be a standalone, web‑based, searchable platform accessible on Windows, macOS, Linux desktops/laptops and iOS/Android mobile devices, delivering evidence‑based clinical drug content with weekly updates and urgent safety/clinical alerts posted within 24 hours of editorial validation. The solution must not require the VA to purchase or subscribe to any additional products, must adhere to standard web‑usability conventions (e.g., left‑hand navigation, bold headers), and support a single search across all databases. The anticipated contract will be a 12‑month base period with four optional 12‑month extensions, NAICS 519290 (R605), and will be set aside as appropriate. Respondents must provide detailed subcontracting plans that meet VAAR 852.219‑75 and FAR 52.219‑14 requirements, including percentages of contract value performed by the prime versus similarly situated entities and other subcontractors for labor, materials, and direct costs. Offerors must also submit entity information (company name, address, UEI, point‑of‑contact details) and indicate eligibility for small‑business programs. Responses are for information only and will assist the VA in determining the need for a set‑aside and identifying capable vendors.
