IHS anticipates a firm-fixed-price contract priced by month, with a tentative start date of February 1, 2027, a six-month base period, and four six-month option periods, subject to award and required onboarding, credentialing, and privileging. The anticipated NAICS code is 621399 with a $10 million size standard, and responses will inform acquisition planning, including possible Buy Indian Act set-aside consideration; no set-aside determination is announced. Interested respondents should provide capability statements covering business/socioeconomic status, comparable anesthesia staffing experience including rural or remote coverage, staffing capacity and credentialing/replacement plans, recommended schedules and requirement alternatives, contract vehicles, and optional nonbinding all-inclusive monthly budget estimates; hourly quotations and formal proposals are not requested.
