The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 3 (SAMHSA 3) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle is a comprehensive procurement mechanism designed to support a wide range of behavioral health, substance abuse prevention, and mental health services. The vehicle covers six primary domains: Feasibility, Pilot and Evaluation Projects; Statistical Projects; Policy Analysis and Program Related Projects; Communications Projects; Technical Assistance and Training Projects; and Planning, Implementation, and Report Support Projects. These domains enable SAMHSA to rapidly acquire professional services from multiple contractors to support its mission of reducing the impact of substance abuse and mental illness on American communities.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently demonstrate a focus on technical assistance, research, communications, and program evaluation across behavioral health domains. Typical contract values range from approximately $3 million to $35 million, with performance periods spanning 2-5 years. Frequently winning prime contractors include Westat, Inc., JBS International, ICF Incorporated, Policy Research Associates, and Hendall Inc. Most task orders are awarded as cost-plus-award-fee contracts and do not utilize small business set-asides, though some contracts have been awarded to minority-owned, woman-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. Performance locations are predominantly in the Maryland/Washington D.C. metropolitan area, with work focused on supporting SAMHSA's various centers and programs such as the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP), Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), and Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS).
