The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 2 (SAMHSA 2) is a Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle designed to support a wide range of behavioral health, technical assistance, and evaluation services. The vehicle was awarded on May 15, 2012, with a shared ceiling of $900 million and is structured around five primary domains: Feasibility, Pilot and Evaluation Projects; Statistical Projects; Health Systems Analysis, Economics, and Financing; Technical Assistance and Training; and Event Planning and Logistics. This flexible contract mechanism allows SAMHSA to issue task orders across multiple areas related to substance abuse, mental health, and related social services.

Task orders under this IDIQ consistently focus on technical assistance, program evaluation, and support services for behavioral health initiatives. Typical task orders range from $2 million to $40 million, with performance periods generally spanning 2-4 years. Key contractors include Policy Research Associates, Advocates for Human Potential, Education Development Center, and The RAND Corporation. Most task orders are awarded as cost-plus-award-fee contracts and predominantly support federal programs targeting veterans, mental health, substance use disorders, trauma-informed care, and community support services. While most task orders have no set-aside designation, a few were awarded with partial small business or total small business set-asides. The contract vehicle supports SAMHSA's mission of providing leadership, resources, and innovative approaches to behavioral health challenges across various populations and service domains.
