1400, PAOAG Physical Exams

The Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General (PAOAG) is soliciting bids under RFX 6100066981 for pre-employment and annual physical examinations for PAOAG Agent applicants and employees, with bids due November 16, 2026. Bids must be submitted electronically through the Commonwealth's SRM system, and no pre-bid conference will be held. No set-aside or preference program is stated.

Physicians must be board certified in medicine or osteopathy with current status, or board certified in Internal Medicine with occupational medicine continuing medical education. Radiologic interpretation must be performed by a "B" reader qualified physician, and all healthcare personnel must hold active Pennsylvania licenses in good standing. The contractor must comply with HIPAA and ADA requirements, maintain insurance, establish a written business integrity policy, and arrange background checks for all employees and subcontractor personnel with facility access before initial assignment. Offerors must also complete the Domestic Workforce Utilization Certification, committing either to perform all direct labor within the United States or WTO Government Procurement Agreement countries, or to specify domestic labor percentages and offshore countries. Failure to complete the certification results in no consideration for this evaluation criterion.

Exams determine whether applicants and employees can perform essential PAOAG Agent job functions. Appendix A lists the tests, including heavy metal panels, biochemical profiles, hepatitis screening, pulmonary function tests, audiograms, strength and flexibility assessments, and drug screening through NIDA/DHHS/SAMHSA-certified laboratories, priced per test. Examinations occur at the contractor's office or facilities in the Harrisburg area and surrounding counties, with PAOAG requesting one designated day per month per location and availability responses within three business days. Exam reports are due within five business days (drug results within 24 hours), with full written reports within ten business days by certified mail or overnight courier.

The terms summary cites approximately 1,400 examination services, while the IFB estimates approximately 50 applicants and employees annually. All quantities are estimates, and PAOAG pays only for actual services. A miscellaneous line will be added after award for additional testing. The contract is fixed-price, with compensation limited to quoted prices. The initial term runs twelve months from December 20, 2026, with up to four one-year renewals at OAG discretion and a right to extend up to three months. Each examined individual requires a separate itemized invoice routed to the Criminal Law Division (Attn: Ali Jury), and neither contractors nor subcontractors may bill applicants or employees directly.

Award goes to the lowest total cost meeting all specifications, and the Commonwealth may award by line item or reject any and all bids. Written questions go to Erin Webster at ewebster@attorneygeneral.gov before bid opening.
