About this opportunity

The Indian Health Service (IHS), part of the Department of Health and Human Services, is conducting a market research survey to assess potential sources for dental supplies for the Zuni Comprehensive Community Health Center. This Sources Sought Notice is specifically targeting dental equipment and supplies under NAICS Code 339114, with a preference for Dentsply North America LLC brand or equivalent products. The agency seeks to determine whether a 100% set-aside for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE) or small businesses can fulfill the contract requirements. Interested vendors must submit detailed information including company name, address, point of contact, Unique Entity ID, business size, and socioeconomic status by March 27, 2025, at 3:00 PM Mountain Time. Participants must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide a comprehensive capability statement with past performance details, contract values, employee information, and relevant skills.

The procurement is specifically designated as an Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-aside, with potential for alternative small business qualification. The contract structure includes a base period with four potential option periods for renewal, indicating a multi-year procurement strategy. Respondents must complete the Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) representation form and demonstrate their ability to manage the specified services. While specific award values are not disclosed, vendors are required to provide details about their previous contract dollar values and employee capabilities. All submissions must be sent via email to Shannon Eldridge-Shorty, and companies must self-certify their eligibility, including ownership status, tribal affiliation, and small business classification. The market research approach suggests the IHS is carefully evaluating potential suppliers to ensure adequate competition and service delivery for dental supply procurement.
