IHS Physician Services 2013-2018

This vehicle is closed and not available for new work. The Indian Health Service awarded the IHS Physician Services 2013-2018 Master IDIQ on February 22, 2013, with a final ordering deadline of February 28, 2018—now eight years and four months past. The last task order was issued on February 24, 2015. No new orders may be placed against this vehicle.

The IDIQ contracted physician, physician assistant, and nurse practitioner staffing services for Indian Health Service facilities, with all 37 task orders supporting ACL Hospital (identified in delivery order descriptions). Task orders were firm fixed price, monthly or quarterly engagements ranging from roughly $5,800 to $79,000 per order, typically covering one to four clinicians on short-term assignments. Combined potential value across all 37 orders was $1.2 million, fully obligated by 2015.

AB Staffing Solutions LLC dominated the competitive landscape, holding 27 of 37 orders (73% of task-order count) and $926 thousand of the $1.2 million combined potential value. CHG Companies, Inc. held six orders for $192 thousand, and Medical Doctor Associates LLC held four orders for $124 thousand. Activity peaked in 2014 with 19 orders, declined sharply to six in 2015, and ceased thereafter. All task orders were unrestricted (no small-business set-aside). Indian Health Service was the sole funding agency.

This vehicle has no successor identified in the source material. Organizations seeking IHS physician staffing contracts should evaluate any replacement IDIQ or alternative procurement vehicle the agency may have established post-2018.
