Timber Lake JCC Medical Services
Solicitation # 1282A726Q0031
This is a sources-sought synopsis issued by the USDA Forest Service for preliminary market research to identify qualified small businesses capable of providing on-site medical services at the Timber Lake Job Corps Center in Estacada, Oregon. The announcement is not a solicitation and does not seek proposals or award a contract; no reimbursement is offered for response costs. The government is exploring interest from Small Business, 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) entities under a Total Small Business Set-Aside as defined by FAR 19.5. The contemplated contract, should one be issued following this market research, would be a firm fixed-price arrangement for weekly on-site medical care—typically one to two days per week between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.—to serve approximately 100 to 300 Job Corps students. Services must align with federal regulations including 20 CFR Part 684, HIPAA, OSHA, and the Job Corps Policy and Requirements Handbook (PRH), covering basic healthcare, immunizations, chronic care management, mental health coordination, and compliant health record maintenance. Responses must include a capabilities statement and the respondent’s current SAM Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and are to be submitted electronically to Louis Lieb, the Contract Specialist at louis.lieb@usda.gov, by June 16, 2026. All medical services are to be delivered exclusively at the Timber Lake JCC location, with no travel authorized. Contractors must ensure their personnel hold active, unrestricted state licenses, maintain required insurance coverage, and pass criminal background checks and drug tests. Government ownership of all student health data is absolute, and no research or publication derived from this program may occur without prior written approval from the Job Corps National Office. Contractor personnel are prohibited from working on federal holidays, and all time must be accounted for through a documented system. While no formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, pricing details, or packaging requirements are specified in this synopsis—consistent with its preliminary nature—any future RFQ will likely require adherence to these operational, compliance, and personnel standards, with invoicing to be processed via the INVOICING PROCESSING PLATFORM (IPP).
