The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) – through Federal Occupational Health – is conducting market research to identify vendors capable of providing, configuring, or developing a secure, web‑based Respirator Medical Questionnaire and Evaluation Tool. The solution must support OSHA‑compliant respirator medical clearance, automated clinical decision logic, physician review, secure electronic storage, user notifications, role‑based access, and integration with federal identity‑management (SAML 2.0/OpenID) and phishing‑resistant MFA. It must also meet HHS cybersecurity, privacy, records‑management, and Section 508 accessibility requirements and obtain an Authority to Operate (ATO). The anticipated contract includes a base year (Oct 31 2027 – Oct 30 2028) with four one‑year option periods through Oct 30 2032, totaling up to five years of service, hosting, maintenance, and support. The government seeks information on existing commercial platforms versus custom development, technical maturity, implementation approaches, and potential acquisition strategies.
