Notice Type: Notice of Intent to Sole Source

Title: Health and Human Services (HHS) Smart Card Management System (SCMS)

Support for Security Keys Phase 2

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Library of Medicine (NLM), intends to award a sole source purchase order for the Center of Technology (CIT) with Deloitte Consulting, LLP, 1919 N Lynn Street, Arlington VA 22209-1742 for Health and Human Services (HHS) Smart Card Management System (SCMS) Support for Security Keys Phase 2. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 541519 - Other Computer Related Services. Deloitte Consulting, LLP is the only responsible source known to provide the services needed.



Description:

In response to increasing online phishing attempts, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Smart Card Management System (SCMS) team shall provide support in coordination with the Center for Information and Technology (CIT) Identity and Access Management (IAM) services to implement security keys as an additional authentication mechanism at NIH. Security keys provide similar multi-factor authentication functionality as a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) badge; however, they can be shipped to the user, rather than requiring them to visit an NIH badging office.
