JOFOC ACH October FY27.pdf

This is a Non Competitive Memorandum for Simplified Acquisition Actions justifying a sole source acquisition under IAW FAR 13.101-3(b).

The Department of Justice, Bureau of Prisons at FCI Cumberland is procuring comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services for the inmate population through a sole source award to American Correctional Healthcare, Inc. (ACH), the incumbent contractor. The required services include inpatient/outpatient facility and physician services, as well as outpatient institution services provided by dentists, dieticians, pharmacists, and optometrists. The performance period runs from October 1, 2026, through October 31, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $250,000.00. The acquisition is justified under 41 U.S.C. 253 and 41 U.S.C. 1901(e) based on ACH's unique qualifications as the incumbent provider. The justification cites ACH's established medical network, proven performance capability, seamless service delivery without lapses, and the critical need to maintain continuity of care for the inmate population. The document notes that other vendors, while theoretically capable of meeting the Government's needs, lack the ability to provide services immediately without service interruption. The Contracting Officer, Brian Logsdon, certified the justification as accurate and complete as of October 8, 2026.
