Weber Basin Medical Services

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service is conducting market research through this Sources Sought Synopsis to identify qualified contractors to provide basic medical services at Weber Basin Job Corps Center in Ogden, Utah. The procurement seeks to establish a firm fixed-price contract for comprehensive healthcare delivery to Job Corps students aged 16-24, including physical examinations, medical treatment plans, chronic care management, medication prescriptions, and health promotion activities. The contractor must possess an active, unrestricted state medical license, maintain professional liability insurance, and demonstrate willingness to undergo background checks and maintain HIPAA compliance. This is a preliminary market research announcement, and no formal proposals are currently being solicited or accepted; rather, the government is gathering information regarding the interest, capabilities, and qualifications of small businesses, 8(a) firms, HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB). Interested parties must submit a capabilities statement and their SAM Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) electronically to Contract Specialist Louis Lieb at louis.lieb@usda.gov by February 4, 2026, with the understanding that an RFQ solicitation will follow depending on the responses received.

The procurement carries no set-aside designation, and no incumbent contractor information or award value has been disclosed in this synopsis. Medical services will be provided on-site one to two days per week during standard business hours (8am-5pm), with the contractor supporting a student population ranging from 100 to over 300 enrollees, with average enrollment periods of eight to nine months. The contractor will be responsible for treating minor and acute conditions, participating in center health-related meetings and activities, and coordinating with the center's wellness programs. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with responding to this sources sought announcement or any follow-up information requests, as this is market research rather than a formal solicitation.
