The requested agreement shall provide services to adult and pediatric Native American populations at tribal and federal IHS locations in New Mexico. Due to the complex nature of the request in providing specialized services to Native American patients/clients and the need for sensitivity to cross-cultural and language differences in Native American patients/clients in the Albuquerque Area IHS, we are seeking to sole source. Period of Performance is for one base year plus four option years, as follows: **Base Year:** **05/01/2026-04/30/2027 Option Year #1:** **05/01/2027-04/30/2028 Option Year #2:** **05/01/2028-04/30/2029 Option Year #3:** **05/01/2029-04/30/2030 Option Year #4:** 05/01/2030-04/30/2031 The estimated total value is above the simplified acquisition threshold. The sole source contracting action is pursuing a waiver from placing an order on a competitive basis pursuant to FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supply or service will satisfy agency requirements and is based on market research. Responses to this notice must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government, would not be cost or time prohibitive, and would not hinder the mission objective of agency. The determination not to complete the proposed action is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received normally will be considered for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred for responding to this notice. This is not a request for quotes or proposals.
