Dental Treatment Services for the Nevada Army National Guard

The Nevada Army National Guard is seeking dental treatment services through a pre-solicitation notice for comprehensive dental care covering approximately 3,300 service members. The Department of the Army Nevada Army National Guard plans to issue the formal solicitation on SAM.gov on or around August 27, 2025, with responses due by September 16, 2025. This six-month test program will replace the current voucher reimbursement system and focus on providing dental services within 50 miles of Carson City and Las Vegas areas. Key requirements include employing Nevada-licensed dental professionals, conducting comprehensive oral examinations, performing invasive dental treatments, and maintaining detailed documentation with results entered into DENCLASS within three business days. The primary objective is to improve dental readiness by transitioning soldiers from Class 3 (non-deployable) to Class 2 (deployable) dental status, with a goal of achieving at least 90% mission readiness. Interested vendors are encouraged to submit capability statements and SBA business size information to the contracting officer via email.

This opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 621210 (Offices of Dentists) with an SBA size standard of $9 million. The contract structure will involve firm-fixed price per treatment purchase orders, with multiple awards potentially being considered. The six-month performance period is scheduled to begin in late September 2025, specifically targeting 125 soldiers requiring complex dental treatment during this initial phase. If the test program proves successful, the government anticipates issuing a longer-term contract for continued services. The program represents a shift from the current voucher reimbursement model to a more structured contractual approach for dental services in the greater Las Vegas and Reno/Carson City areas of Nevada. No incumbent contractors or specific budget ranges were disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice.
