LexisNexis provides the Identity Verification Tool, which meets the needs of the government s requirement. Justification: The VA, Veterans Health Administration (VHA), Central Office (VACO) Library requires an existing, commercial, off-the-shelf, web-based application identity trait verification tool which will be made available to all VACO Library staff and employees. Access to this tool will provide the VA with an enhanced ability to maintain the integrity of its identity records. VHA s goal is to ensure uniform availability of high quality, medical and health services across the VHA system to improve clinical decision making. Background: VHA maintains a database of over 60 million electronic health records. This data will be used by the VA to verify traits for entries within the VA s Master Person Index (MPI), ensuring the accurate linking of data from various facilities where the patient received treatment. The objective of this procurement is to ensure that this tool is available to assist in maintaining the accuracy of data stored within the MPI. The required service contains the copyrighted, intellectual property of LexisNexis, and LexisNexis does not license its service through 3rd party resellers. For this reason, direct purchase from LexisNexis is in the best interest of Government to receive access to their Identity Verification Tool. Submittal Information: As stated above, this is an Intent to Sole Source. However, any responsible source who believes it is capable of fully meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency, only if received by the closing date and time of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Responses to this notice are due on or before June 14, 2022 at 9:00AM EST to Lamonte Jones via email at Lamonte.Jones@va.gov. All responses must include the following information: Company name, Cage code, Unique Entity ID, Company address, Point of contact name, Phone number, Fax number, GSA contract (if applicable) and email address.
