FY27 Treatment Services: Eastern District of Texas

The United States Probation and Pretrial Services Office for the Eastern District of Texas is seeking to establish Blanket Purchase Agreements for mental health treatment services to support federal defendants and individuals under supervision, with performance beginning October 1, 2026, and concluding September 30, 2027. The government retains the unilateral option to extend the agreement for up to four additional years in twelve-month increments under Clause 2-90D. Services must be delivered within the Longview, Texas catchment area and include mental health assessments, individual, group, and family counseling, as well as dual diagnosis treatment. Proposals must demonstrate the capability to provide services through an accessible facility, employ qualified professionals meeting state and federal licensing standards, and offer pricing no higher than the offeror’s most favored customer rate for similar services under comparable terms. The solicitation, identified as 0540-27-0011, will be posted on June 24, 2026, with responses due by July 27, 2026, and must be submitted via email to the designated team address. All submissions must include required attachments such as a staffing qualification statement, monitoring report template, invoice template, and background disclosure forms, while excluding the contract’s technical sections. Only electronic submissions are accepted, and proposals must be in English and priced in U.S. dollars. Evaluation will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, where technical acceptability is a mandatory pass/fail threshold based on compliance with all mandatory requirements in Sections C through I, including facility standards, staffing credentials, recordkeeping protocols, and confidentiality adherence. Price is the sole discriminator among technically compliant offers, with no weighting or trade-offs applied. Vendors must provide a Unique Entity Identifier and disclose their size and socioeconomic status, though no set-aside applies. Special requirements include strict safeguards for Judiciary Sensitive Information, prohibition of mobile device storage of such data, mandatory training, and vetting of personnel to exclude those with criminal histories or ongoing supervision status. Any change in performance sites requires thirty days’ advance notice and formal contract modification via SF-30. Invoicing must follow the court’s proprietary template, with no use of electronic payment systems like WAWF. All records must be retained for three years after payment, and failure to comply with reporting obligations—such as notifying the government within 48 hours of arrests or high-risk incidents—may result in termination. The contract prohibits
