Social Work

The Product and Service Code (PSC) Q528 encompasses social work services across various federal government sectors. These services primarily involve professional social work interventions, including therapeutic support, case management, residential treatment, and specialized psychological assessments. The scope ranges from supporting vulnerable populations such as homeless veterans and children in welfare systems to providing critical mental health and behavioral health services for specialized military and government programs.

The federal contract awards under PSC Q528 demonstrate a diverse range of social work engagements, typically with contract values between $2,500 and $244,000 and durations of approximately one year. Key funding agencies include the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Special Operations Command, Department of Health and Human Services, and District of Columbia Courts. Frequently awarded entities are small businesses, including veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, woman-owned, and minority-owned firms such as Tryfacta Inc., Special Psychological Application Corp, and Gateway Center. Most awards are firm fixed-price delivery or purchase orders, with no specific set-aside designations, and performance locations spanning regions like Washington DC, North Carolina, and California.

The federal contract opportunities in this PSC category focus on providing comprehensive social services, particularly for vulnerable populations. The Department of Veterans Affairs has posted a solicitation for emergency residential services and supportive care for homeless veterans in California, seeking contractors to provide housing, meals, therapeutic services, case management, and permanent housing assistance. The opportunity is unrestricted but provides evaluation preferences for service-disabled and veteran-owned small businesses. The procurement includes a five-year ordering period with a maximum aggregate value covering residential and support services in Fresno, Tulare, Merced, and Madera Counties.
