Pre-solicitation Notice: On-Ramp for the Department of Defense OMNIBUS IV Multiple-Award Contract

This is a pre-solicitation notice to synopsize the intention of the Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity (DHACA) to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an on-ramp to the OMNIBUS IV Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle covering military medical research and development services. The anticipated RFP is anticipated to be posted in early November 2026. A historical pre-solicitation notice was posted under Notice ID# HT942626RE002, although there were various delays with getting a solicitation out in Fiscal Year 2026. This notice is taking over where Notice ID# HT942626RE002 left off. No further delays are anticipated at this time for this on-ramp, and an RFP is expected to be posted by early November 2026. The eventual RFP will be set-aside for small businesses certified under the Small Business Administration 8(a) Program. The Government anticipates making multiple new awards under this on-ramp, and all new awards will align with the existing unrestricted contract vehicle. This notice is not a request for proposals and does not commit the Government to any contractual agreement. The OMNIBUS IV contract vehicle was awarded under full and open competition with a base ordering period of 20 June 2022 through 19 June 2027 and an Option Ordering Period of 20 June 2027 - 19 June 2032. Task orders may be competed under fair opportunity (providing all Contract Holders within a Market Segment the opportunity to submit a proposal) or an exception to fair opportunity (such as set-asides for small businesses or applicable small business socioeconomic categories). The cumulative ceiling of this unrestricted IDIQ contract vehicle is $10 billion. To date, the accumulated awarded task order value (including future unexercised option periods) is over $690 million across 61 task orders. Task Orders have been issued by a growing number of end users including DHACA, the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (now integrated into DHACA), the Naval Supply Systems Command, and the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. When excluding the task orders simply providing a minimum guarantee to the existing Contract Holders, 61 task orders have been issued off this contract vehicle with 8 task orders being set aside for the 8(a) Program and 15 task orders being awarded to an 8(a) Participant (based on the most recent representations at the contract level). 42 task orders have been awarded so far to small businesses under this contract vehicle. Of the 61 task orders, 95% were awarded during the Government Fiscal Years 2024 - 2026. Please see attachments for further details.
