AI Contract Overview
The Indian Health Service, Kayenta Service Unit, is conducting market research through a sources-sought notice to identify qualified vendors capable of supplying Personal Protective Equipment, specifically hazmat coveralls made of polyolefin and hazmat rubber boots, under the Buy Indian Act and Small Business Act set-asides. The requirement is classified under NAICS code 339113 with a small business size standard of 800 employees, and responses are being solicited to determine the availability of Indian-owned economic enterprises, both large and small, as well as other capable firms. While the notice is not a solicitation and no award will be made based on submissions, the government will use the information to shape its future acquisition strategy, prioritizing Indian-owned concerns under the Buy Indian Act before considering other small business set-asides. All respondents must be registered in SAM.gov and submit a company profile, a capability statement detailing relevant experience, and, if applicable, a completed IHS IEE Representation Form to affirm Indian ownership as required by HHSAR 326.606-1(b). Responses must be received via email by May 26, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. EDT to the designated point of contact, with the exact subject line specified, and no telephone inquiries or feedback will be provided. The place of performance is Kayenta, Arizona, and no packaging, marking, or delivery specifications are included at this stage, as the notice serves solely to gather market information. Submission is voluntary, and the government assumes no financial responsibility for any costs incurred in responding. Indian-owned entities must maintain continuous eligibility throughout the submission, award, and performance phases, and false representations regarding Native American ownership may result in criminal penalties under federal law. The acquisition is being planned under the authority of the Buy Indian Act and applicable HHSAR provisions, with a focus on identifying capable providers who meet the stringent ownership and regulatory criteria. No contract value, pricing, or delivery timelines are defined in this request, and no formal evaluation factors or award criteria exist, as this is strictly a pre-solicitation market research action to inform future contracting decisions.
