Q -- Notice of Intenet to Award a Sole Source Purchase Order to University of North Carolina Hospitals

The Federal Bureau of Prisons at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina, plans to issue a firm-fixed price, sole source purchase order to the University of North Carolina Memorial Hospitals in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. This procurement is non-competitive and initiated by the Federal Correctional Complex in Butner due to a specific need for healthcare services that are not covered under the existing comprehensive medical contract. The notice is primarily for informational purposes to communicate the government's intent and to gather feedback that might influence a future competitive procurement, though no competitive quotes are being requested at this time. Interested parties are invited to submit information within five working days following the publication date, which will be considered to determine the potential for competitive procurement. The point of contact for this action is Lori Spruill, Contract Specialist at FCC-Butner, who can be reached via mail, fax, or email. This sole source award emphasizes the unique capabilities of UNC Memorial Hospitals in meeting the specialized healthcare needs of the Federal Correctional Complex in Butner.
