About CIO-SP3

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has been designated as an executive agent for purposes of providing Information Technology (IT) to the government. Under this authority, NIH established three Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs) to support the full range of IT needs across the federal government.

The next general contract (or contracts) will be a successor to the current Chief Information Officer-Solutions and Partners 2 Innovations (CIO-SP2i) and the Image World 2 New Dimensions (IW2nd) GWACs, which will expire December 2010.

Although there is no guarantee of future work under the successor contract (except for the minimum guarantee normally included in Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts), approximately $7.3 billion has been awarded through these two GWACs over the life of the contracts from all sources. The scope of CIO-SP3 is expected to include:

• IT services for biomedical research and healthcare
• Chief Information Officer (CIO) support
• Imaging
• Outsourcing
• IT operations and maintenance
• Integration services
• Critical infrastructure protection and information assurance
• Digital government
• Enterprise management systems
• Software development
