Sources Sought: FMC Lexington - Mobile Imaging Services

The Federal Bureau of Prisons Field Acquisition Office is conducting market research to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for mobile ultrasound and echocardiogram services at the FMC Lexington in Kentucky. The procurement is specifically targeted at providing imaging services for the inmate population, with a focus on obtaining comprehensive medical imaging capabilities. Potential vendors must have sonographers registered in specific imaging fields, be licensed in Kentucky, and maintain proper medical credentials. The market research questionnaire seeks detailed information about vendors' business capabilities, including SAM registration, small business program eligibility, insurance capabilities, and employee availability. Vendors are required to submit their responses by May 30, 2025, with the complete solicitation to be distributed exclusively through the GSA eBuy website.

The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation for this procurement. The contract is estimated to include approximately 1,560 one-hour imaging sessions per performance period, with a base year and four additional one-year performance periods. Vendors must demonstrate the ability to provide services on-site at the facility between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Additional critical requirements include Joint Commission accreditation, board-certified physician interpretations, and comprehensive medical record handling protocols. While no specific award value is mentioned, the procurement emphasizes strict qualifications and expects vendors to provide firm-fixed unit pricing for their mobile imaging services. The government will use the submitted market research responses to help shape the final solicitation and determine potential set-aside status.
