Substance Use Disorder Treatment Services - DOC Facilities Statewide

The Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services is soliciting proposals for a statewide contract to provide comprehensive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Treatment Services within its Division of Correction facilities. The scope of work includes SUD screening and assessments at intake, Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) counseling, ASAM Level 2.1 Intensive Outpatient Treatment Programs (IOP), and structured reentry services. All services must adhere to COMAR 10.47.01 and 10.63.03, Maryland Department of Health and Behavioral Health Administration standards, and NCCHC or CARF guidelines. The contract is structured as an indefinite quantity agreement with fixed unit prices. To qualify, offerors must demonstrate at least three years of experience within the last five years providing comparable SUD counseling and treatment services. The award will be based on a balanced evaluation where technical factors—including management structure, staff qualifications, and economic benefit to the state—and financial factors are weighted equally. Selected contractors must implement a comprehensive quality assurance program and comply with strict security requirements, including criminal background checks for all on-site personnel and adherence to the NIST cybersecurity framework. Procurement goals include an 8.00% MBE and 1.0% VSBE participation target. Proposals must be submitted via the eMMA system by November 12, 2026.
