Q--DOI Wellness Center Support

The contract supports wellness center operations at the Stewart Lee Udall Building in Washington, DC, under a small business set-aside with NAICS code 621999 and a $20.5 million size standard, requiring full compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses including 52.212-4 for commercial services and 52.217-8 and 52.217-9 for multiple option periods extending the base year through 2031 with a potential six-month extension. Core services include comprehensive wellness center staffing, medical direction and clinical oversight, and on-demand administrative support with a fixed not-to-exceed value of $7,200 per period for after-hours and high-level secretarial services. The contractor must provide a qualified nursing manager and supplementary nursing staff, obtain federal security clearances for all personnel, and comply with strict data handling protocols under HIPAA and DOI policies. Electronic invoicing through the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform is mandatory, and WAWF is prohibited. The technical approach, staffing plan, and management structure form the basis of evaluation, with technical merit being the most critical factor followed by past performance, where price is only decisive among technically equivalent proposals. The contract incorporates multiple compliance and regulatory safeguards including prohibitions on Kaspersky, ByteDance, and Chinese telecommunications equipment, restrictions on subcontractor sales to the government, whistleblower protections, and a deviation clause explicitly prohibiting discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion practices. Offerors must submit proposals in four volumes with strict page limits—ten pages for technical capability and three for past performance—and must be registered in SAM.gov with a valid Unique Entity Identifier. Proposals must be submitted electronically via email by 11:00 AM Eastern Time on May 8, 2026, with a 25 MB file size limitation per transmission. All deliverables will be inspected and accepted solely by government representatives at the performance location, and the government will furnish clinical space, medical equipment, and supplies. Contractors may propose improvements to the wellness program or transition from paper-based to electronic patient tracking systems, subject to government approval. The contracting officer, Nicholas Lewicki, based at the Interior Business Center in Herndon, VA, will manage oversight until a Contracting Officer’s Representative is designated post-award.
