Systems and methods for health orchestration of modular platforms in a firmware framework are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a controller, where the controller includes firmware that, upon execution by a processing core, causes the processing core to instantiate an orchestrator of a firmware framework; and a first plurality of devices coupled to the controller, where each device of the first plurality of devices includes firmware that, upon execution by a corresponding processing core, causes the corresponding processing core to instantiate a respective node in the firmware framework, where the orchestrator is coupled to a secondary orchestrator instantiated by another controller of a modular board coupled to the IHS, and where the secondary orchestrator is configured to communicate an indication of a health status to the orchestrator without any involvement by any host Operating System (OS) of the IHS.
