SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE

The Albuquerque Area Office (AAO), Indian Health Service (IHS), is issuing this Sources Sought Notice for informational and planning purposes only. This notice is not a solicitation, obligation, or commitment by the Government and is intended solely for market research and acquisition planning.

The purpose of this notice is to identify qualified sources capable of meeting the Government's requirement and to assess the availability of Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEEs) and other socioeconomic small business concerns.

Purpose

IHS is seeking information from qualified sources capable of providing educational courseware, digital educational services, and related educational support for adolescents enrolled in a Medicaid-funded Behavioral Health Day Treatment Program at New Sunrise Regional Treatment Center (NSRTC).

The Government has identified Edmentum as a potential solution and seeks to determine the availability of Edmentum products through qualified sources and whether equivalent solutions can meet the Government's requirements.

• PSC: U009 – Education/Training – General

• Place of Performance: New Sunrise Regional Treatment Center (NSRTC), San Fidel, New Mexico

Services must support compliance with applicable CMS and state Medicaid requirements, FERPA, HIPAA, state confidentiality requirements, and applicable Joint Commission and CARF standards. Educational services must remain distinct from Medicaid-reimbursable clinical services.

Instructions for Respondents

• Experience supporting adolescent or comparable student populations and meeting applicable student privacy and confidentiality requirements.

• At least two or more recent examples of contracts or projects of similar size and scope.

Respondents capable of providing Edmentum should identify their status as an authorized reseller, partner, distributor, or other authorized provider and identify the Edmentum products and services they can provide.

Respondents proposing an equivalent solution should identify the proposed product or platform and explain how it meets the educational and functional capabilities described in this notice, including any significant differences, implementation requirements, training, and technical support.
