About this opportunity

The Indian Health Service (IHS) Phoenix Area Office has issued a sole source notice for utility services at the Desert Visions Youth Wellness Center in Sacaton, Arizona. The agency intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order to the Gila River Indian Community under NAICS code 221310 for Water Supply and Irrigation Systems services. The contract covers freshwater, sewage, and waste removal services with a total estimated value of $87,866.01. This procurement is being conducted under FAR 13.106-1(b)(2) as a single source acquisition, and the notice is designated as an 8(a) sole source set-aside. The justification documents indicate this is a new requirement for essential utility services at the youth wellness center.

The primary purpose of this notice is to inform the marketplace of the government's intent to proceed with a sole source award while allowing other capable vendors to submit capability statements for consideration. Interested contractors must submit their capability statements via email to Minkyu.kim@ihs.gov, referencing notice number IHS1512376, by September 19, 2025. The government emphasizes this is not a request for quotes or proposals but rather an opportunity for responsible sources to demonstrate their capabilities to provide the required utility services. Market research has confirmed that the Gila River Indian Community's Public Works Department is currently the only authorized provider for these utility services in the area. The government reserves complete discretion to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on any responses received, and there is no obligation to acknowledge receipt of submissions or provide feedback to respondents.
