Medical Screening Services - Sources Sought Notice

The Department of Commerce Shared Services Procurement Office, acting on behalf of the Bureau of Industry and Security, is issuing a Sources Sought Notice to identify potential contractors capable of providing medical screening services for federal law enforcement personnel. This notice seeks information on industry capabilities to support pre-employment and periodic medical examinations required for fitness-for-duty determinations, particularly for roles involving physical exertion, firearms handling, or hazardous exposures. Responses must include company details such as Unique Entity ID, CAGE code, facility security clearance level, small business status, socioeconomic certifications, years in business, employee count, and prior experience with government contracts, all submitted in a single five-page capability statement via email by 3:00 PM ET on May 20, 2026. No pricing, cost data, or formal proposals will be accepted or considered, and the notice does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to award a contract. All submitted information may be used solely to inform the development of a future public solicitation, and respondents are advised not to include proprietary information that could become publicly disclosed. The services to be procured will involve conducting medical exams in accordance with OSHA regulations and 5 CFR 339, including audiograms, ECGs, vision and hearing assessments, and mental health evaluations, with all determinations reviewed and approved by a board-certified occupational medicine physician. Performance is required across major metropolitan areas including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Washington D.C., and others, with potential extension to U.S. Government facilities and OCONUS locations. Contractors must maintain an approved Quality Control Plan, submit monthly progress reports in electronic format, ensure final reports are delivered within 30 business days, and coordinate appointments within 15 business days of referral. The contract structure will likely be a Firm-Fixed-Price task order with a base period and up to four option periods, though exact durations and funding levels are not yet defined. Security clearance at the Secret or Top Secret level is required for contractor facilities, and all providers must be properly licensed practitioners—physicians, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants—with specific roles reserved for physicians per agency mandates. No contracting officer, COR, or payment office details are provided, and no formal evaluation factors, weights, or award basis are outlined in this pre-solicitation phase.
