Catholic Priest Services

This contract is a non-personal services requirement for the Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall Religious Support Office to secure an ordained Catholic Priest endorsed by the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, to provide religious services on an as-needed basis to military personnel, family members, and authorized personnel. The priest must hold faculties granted by the AMS Archbishop and serve as the sole authoritative subject matter expert on all Catholic matters at the installation, delivering Masses, sacraments, confessions, pastoral counseling, and sacramental recordkeeping in strict accordance with Army Regulation 165-1 and AMS guidelines. All services are performed on-site at the Memorial Chapel in Fort Myer, Virginia, with no physical deliveries involved. The priest must be directly employed by the contractor and cannot be sourced through third-party subcontractors, and any substitution requires formal government approval. Key personnel must have firm commitments, fluency in English, a valid driver’s license, vehicle insurance, and must maintain professional conduct at all times. The contractor is required to submit a range of mandated deliverables, including ecclesiastical endorsement and background checks prior to performance, completion of AT Level I and iWatch training within specified timeframes, a monthly work log in Excel format, and a Quality Control Plan submitted shortly after award. All documentation must comply with strict formatting requirements: PDF for training certificates and endorsements, Excel for logs, and Word or PowerPoint for the Quality Control Plan. Invoicing must occur monthly no later than the 5th of the following month via WAWF and must align with approved deliverables. The contract has a five-year base term with optional extensions through 2031, and performance is subject to a 98%–100% Acceptable Quality Level for sacraments, counseling, meeting attendance, and reporting. The contractor must comply with DoD security protocols, including OPSEC, physical access controls, key management procedures, and OSHA and EM 385-1-1 safety standards. All work products and documents are Government property, and any conflict of interest must be immediately disclosed. This is a sources-sought notice, with no pricing provided; the anticipated contract type is expected to be firm fixed price, with evaluation focusing on personnel qualifications, compliance with mandatory endorsements and training, and demonstrated ability to meet quality and performance standards.
