Innovate! Inc. (Innovate) is proud to announce the award of the Department of Health

and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration’s (HRSA) HAB-Specific Portfolio Management and Business Services Task Order. HRSA’s HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) administers the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) which funds grants to states, cities, counties, and local community-based organizations to provide care and treatment services to people with HIV to improve health outcomes and reduce HIV transmission among hard-to-reach populations. Under this five-year task order, Innovate will support HAB in its oversight and management of IT investments that support a variety of data and information management purposes related to RWHAP implementation. This task order will involve enhanced strategic planning and data driven decision-making for HAB’s IT portfolio, studies relevant to portfolio management, and business solution consulting for process automation. This is a competitively awarded task order under Innovate’s CIOSP3 SB contract vehicle.  

Innovate Cloud Advisory Service’s Director Rebecca Thomas notes, “We are honored to have been selected as a HRSA partner in support of the critically important HAB initiatives. We recognize the significance of HAB’s mission, and we are very excited to deliver IT portfolio management solutions that have a direct and positive impact on the RWHAP community.” The RWHAP has proved to be an incredibly impactful and critical component of the response to HIV/AIDS. More than half of the people diagnosed with HIV in the United States receive services through RWHAP, and those individuals receiving services through RWHAP have a viral suppression rate of nearly 90%, compared to a national average under 70%.

Innovate is proud to work with HAB and continue our 19 years of support for health-related missions serving organizations such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), United States Geological Survey (USGS), US Department of Agriculture (USDA), and US Department of Interior (DOI).
