About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service (IHS) Albuquerque Area Office has issued a Sources Sought notice to identify qualified vendors for non-personal health care optometrist services at the Zuni Comprehensive Community Health Center (ZCCHC). This is a Request for Information (RFI) for market research purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment by the government. The requirement falls under NAICS code 621320 (Offices of Optometrists) with a corresponding PSC code of Q511 (Ophthalmology & Optometry). Interested vendors must submit responses by February 13, 2026, that include SAM registration confirmation, company information, Unique Entity ID (UEI) number, business size classification, socioeconomic status, and a capability statement demonstrating their ability to perform optometrist services. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in this notice, the response materials will be used to determine the appropriate procurement strategy going forward. No formal evaluation or award will result from this Sources Sought notice, as its primary purpose is to assess market availability and vendor qualifications.
This procurement opportunity is designated as a 100% set-aside for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE), though the government is conducting this market research to determine whether requirements can alternatively be met through a 100% set-aside for other small business concerns. No incumbent contractor, award value, or specific service timeline has been disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. Vendors seeking to participate in this set-aside must certify their status using the IHS Indian Economic Enterprise Representation Form and maintain eligibility documentation throughout the offer submission, award, and performance periods. Potential awardees will be required to register and maintain active status in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to contract award. Respondents should note that false or misleading information submitted during this process may result in penalties under federal law, including violations of 18 U.S.C. 1001 and the False Claims Act (31 U.S.C. 3729-3731).
