HHS sole-source bridge extension for Repatriation Evaluation Support Services

HHS issued a redacted sole-source justification for a six-month bridge continuation of Repatriation Evaluation Support Services. - Action: Bilateral sole-source bridge modification P00012 to order 75ACF121F80033, under contract 47QRAA18D001P; this is a justification notice, not a new competitive solicitation. - Agency office: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Human Services Emergency Preparedness and Response (OHSEPR). - Incumbent provider: Deloitte Consulting LLP. - Period: September 30, 2026–March 29, 2027.

The services support an estimated 600–1,000 returning eligible U.S. citizens annually, as well as larger surge cohorts during crises. - Value and quantities: The notice summary provides no contract value or detailed service-unit quantities; the stated six months is the bridge period.
