Fairfax Opioid Abatement and Recovery (FOAR) Funding

Fairfax County, Virginia, is seeking qualified providers through a competitive negotiation process to establish contracts for Opioid Abatement and Recovery programs under solicitation number 2000004303, with proposals due by August 28, 2026. The procurement targets organizations capable of delivering comprehensive services aligned with the Fairfax Opioid Abatement and Recovery (FOAR) initiative, focusing on program design, implementation, and measurable outcomes within the county. Proposals will be evaluated using a points-based system totaling 100 points, prioritizing the proposed program scope and statement of needs at 35 points, followed by organizational capacity at 25 points, timeline and performance measures at 20 points, and financial strategy and cost proposal at 20 points. Award will be made based on a trade-off analysis that balances cost with non-cost factors to identify the proposal offering the best overall value, not simply the lowest price. Offerors must hold a valid SAM.gov Unique Entity Identifier and comply with federal and state regulations, including HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, and OSHA standards, and must avoid false statements or lobbying activities requiring disclosure via Standard Form LLL. Contracts will be awarded for an initial term with options to extend up to five years, with performance required entirely within Fairfax County under F.O.B. Destination terms. All submissions must be uploaded electronically through the Bonfire portal, and contractors must submit monthly, itemized invoices following contract-specific instructions. Acceptance of deliverables occurs at the designated delivery point, with final authority resting with the Fairfax County Purchasing Agent, and the County retains the right to terminate contracts for convenience or cause. Contractors must also register for E-Verify if their contract exceeds $50,000 and they have over 50 employees, and are subject to civil and criminal penalties for fraudulent claims or certification violations. No specific contract value is disclosed, but funding is subject to annual appropriation by the Board of Supervisors, and payment instructions will be provided post-award.
