Executive Summary
This digest covers one civilian federal professional services contract with a total obligation of $80,045,908 to SKYWARD DYNAMICS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, LLC from the Department of Health and Human Services' Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), representing 100% civilian exposure and 0% defense-related awards.
The firm fixed price delivery order supports IT and telecom business applications for the Chronic Conditions Warehouse (CCW) and Virtual Research Data Center (VRDC), with a base + options ceiling of $140,432,595 and $36,076,503 already outlayed. The dominant agency and sector theme is HHS/CMS healthcare data IT systems under PSC DA01 and NAICS 541611. The highest-conviction signal is neutral (strength 3/10, materiality 2/10) due to the private LLC recipient's limited public investment linkage despite full and open competition. A key risk is high contract pricing risk under firm fixed price terms; watch options exercise decisions and outlay progress beyond $36M toward the 2027-04-29 (or potential 2029-04-29) end date.
