JOFOC May 2023-April 2024 Signed.pdf

This is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document for comprehensive medical services at FCI Berlin in New Hampshire. The document justifies the sole-source award to Integrated Medical Services (IMS) for comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services for the inmate population from May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024, with an estimated total cost of $660,000.

The justification explains that IMS is the incumbent provider and has agreed to maintain their previous Medicare benchmark rates while the Field Acquisition Office (FAO) works on a competitive acquisition. IMS has been providing these services through their established network of local medical facilities and physicians for over five years. The document cites the immediate need to maintain continuity of care and avoid disruption of medical services as the primary justification for the sole-source award. The requirement will be publicized through the Governmentwide point of entry, and the FAO is actively working toward a competitive acquisition for future services. The rates were determined fair and reasonable based on the previous competitive award under contract DJBP021800000097.
