Tactical Gas Masks, Filters, and CBRN Protective Gear - KHC

The Navajo Area Indian Health Service, Kayenta Health Center, is conducting market research under FAR 10.001 to identify qualified sources capable of providing Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) respiratory protection equipment and hazardous material response supplies for use at its location in Kayenta, Arizona. This sources-sought notice, identified by solicitation number IHS1527801, is not a solicitation and does not obligate the government to procure any goods or services; all submissions are voluntary and at the respondent’s own expense. The requirement is classified under NAICS code 339113 with a small business size standard of 800 employees. Respondents must be registered in SAM.gov and must provide a comprehensive company profile including their UEI, legal name and address, primary point of contact, business size and ownership structure, socio-economic certifications such as 8(a), WOSB/EDWOSB, SDVOSB, or HUBZone status, and explicit identification of any Native American ownership. Companies asserting eligibility as an Indian-owned Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) or Indian-owned Economic Enterprise (IEE) must also submit the complete IHS IEE Representation Form and self-certify compliance with the Buy Indian Act and HHSAR 326.601, maintaining eligibility throughout the offer, award, and contract performance phases. A capability statement outlining relevant experience, past performance on similar requirements, or existing contracts such as GSA or VA Schedules is required, and all responses must be submitted via email to Brandon Martinez by the deadline of June 5, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. MDT with the designated subject line. No telephone inquiries will be accepted, no feedback will be provided on submissions, and any response that fails to include the required information or appears automated will be considered non-responsive and excluded from the market research analysis. The government is using this input to shape its acquisition strategy, including potential set-asides and preference for Indian-owned economic enterprises.
