Paramedic Services - Joint Base Cape Cod, MA

The United States Coast Guard is conducting market research under FAR Part 10 to gather information on commercially available paramedic services for Joint Base Cape Cod in Massachusetts, a restricted 22,000-acre installation with no public access and significant inherent risks for medical emergencies. This Request for Information is not a solicitation for proposals or bids and does not bind the government to award a contract; responses are voluntary, at the respondent’s expense, and will be used solely to inform future acquisition decisions, including potential set-asides. The government seeks to understand industry capabilities to establish continuous 24/7/365 paramedic coverage on base, requiring contractors to manage all aspects of personnel including recruitment, hiring, retention, and termination. All paramedics must hold a current Massachusetts paramedic license, active Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support certifications, authorization to practice within the Cape and Island EMS system, and a clean record in the National Practitioners Data Bank. The anticipated contract period, if a solicitation is issued, would be one base year with four option years. The requirement is classified under NAICS code 561320 with a size standard of $34 million in annual receipts, and respondents are asked to provide their Unique Entity Identifier and indicate whether they are small or other than small businesses, as well as disclose any socioeconomic status and existing Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts. The point of contact for submissions is via email, with responses due by May 22, 2026, to Axel Doody and Lauren Suchy at the U.S. Coast Guard. No pricing, contract line items, or technical specifications are included because this is solely a market research effort with no award anticipated from this notice. No formal evaluation factors, contract clauses, or installation access procedures are defined at this stage, although future solicitations will likely require compliance with EMS authorization, NPDB vetting, and potentially an organizational conflict of interest mitigation plan. The government will not pay for any costs incurred in responding to this RFI, nor will it provide feedback or acknowledge receipt of submissions beyond standard email protocols.
