The Navajo Area Indian Health Service intends to solicit radio broadcasting services under a Buy Indian Act set-aside, with a sources sought response due by June 17, 2026.

This is a market-research sources-sought notice, not a solicitation. NAIHS seeks to identify qualified Indian Economic Enterprises (IEEs) and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEEs) capable of providing professional radio broadcasting services to disseminate public health information across the Navajo Area and surrounding regions. The procurement will prioritize a Buy Indian Act set-aside acquisition strategy under 25 U.S.C. 47, FAR, and HHSAR authority.

Performance spans five months, July 1, 2026 through November 30, 2026. The contractor shall broadcast a minimum of five distinct 30-second public service announcements (PSAs) approved by the NAIHS Health Promotion and Disease Prevention program, with each PSA airing three times daily, seven days per week. Services target underserved communities in remote and rural areas with limited internet access and healthcare availability.

The contractor furnishes all personnel, equipment, facilities, and materials necessary for performance and provides consultation on PSA scheduling and technical broadcasting matters. Deliverables include a detailed broadcast schedule for government approval prior to airing, monthly airing logs documenting each broadcast with date, time, station, and PSA identification, monthly performance reports, a final campaign implementation report, and timely invoices. All deliverables are submitted electronically to the Contracting Officer's Representative, Bernadine John, on a monthly basis.

Offerors must complete the IEE Representation Form certifying compliance with 25 U.S.C. 47 and HHSAR 326.601 and maintain eligibility through contract performance. The Product Service Code is R426 (Broadcast/Media Services); NAICS Code is 516110 (Radio Broadcasting Stations).
