About this opportunity

The Indian Health Service (IHS), a civilian agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, has issued a Special Notice for Electricity (Utility) Services at the Yakama Service Unit in Toppenish, Washington. The notice indicates an intent to award a non-competitive, sole source contract to Yakama Power for providing electrical services to multiple facilities, including the Main Clinic, Green Outbuilding, White Swan Dental, and a water pump located at the Main Clinic. The procurement is being conducted under specific Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provisions, specifically Parts 13.5, 12, 37.101, and Part 41, which govern simplified acquisition procedures and utility services contracts. Yakama Power is identified as the sole authorized provider of utility services to ensure uninterrupted patient care services. The contract falls under the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code 221122 for Electric Power Distribution, with a small business size standard of 1,000 employees.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide a formal announcement of the intended sole source contract award and allow potential vendors an opportunity to submit compelling evidence if they believe competition would be advantageous to the government. Contractors have until 12:00 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time on March 01, 2025, to email responses to Stacy.Hill@ihs.gov, with the understanding that any submissions received after the specified deadline will not be considered. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to proceed with a competitive procurement based on responses received. Vendor responses must not include any proprietary, classified, confidential, or sensitive information, and the government reserves the right to use any non-proprietary technical information in potential future solicitations. The notice is specifically designated as a "Buy Indian" set-aside, which suggests a preference for contracting with Native American-owned businesses. Eligible contractors should carefully review the detailed requirements and be prepared to provide substantive justification if challenging the sole source award.
