About this opportunity
The Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) - Fort Bliss is seeking to procure full-time Catholic Priest services to provide liturgical and pastoral support to Catholic military personnel and their families at Fort Bliss, Texas. The contractor must be an ordained Roman Catholic Priest endorsed by the Archdiocese for Military Services, with at least two years of pastoral experience and in good ecclesiastical standing. Required services include celebrating Mass, administering sacraments, providing pastoral counseling, conducting liturgical planning, and supporting chapel activities in compliance with Army Regulation 165-1. The contract will be awarded to the technically acceptable offeror with the lowest price, with evaluation criteria focusing on technical qualifications, relevant experience, and pricing structure. The solicitation deadline has been extended multiple times, with the current response date set for September 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM MST.
This acquisition is structured as a Firm Fixed Price contract set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 813110 (Religious Organizations) with a size standard of $13 million. The contract includes a base year from September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026, with four additional 12-month option periods that could extend performance through August 31, 2030, totaling up to five years of service. Each contract line item represents 12 months of full-time Catholic Priest services, with the contractor required to maintain a 98-100% acceptable quality level throughout the performance period. The place of performance is Fort Bliss, Texas, where the priest will support the Fort Bliss Garrison Commander's Command Master Religious Program. No current incumbent contractor or specific award values are disclosed in the solicitation materials, though the contract structure suggests a significant multi-year investment in religious support services for the military installation.
