About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Mississippi State Hospital issued a Request for Applications (RFA) seeking a Forensic Psychiatrist to provide clinical services through a four-year contract commencing January 7, 2026, and extending through June 30, 2030. The procurement requires the selected psychiatrist to deliver services via telemedicine and/or in-person consultation, with an anticipated workload of 22 hours per week at a compensation rate of $375 per hour. The solicitation opened on October 30, 2025, and the state received nine vendor responses. Nine vendors submitted applications, including both individual practitioners and staffing organizations, though the procurement was structured to accept only individual contractors. The evaluation process determined that eight vendors were non-responsive and/or non-responsible. The Notice of Intent to Award, dated January 7, 2026, identified Dr. Jarrod Marks of Manlius, New York, as the selected contractor, subject to approval by the Public Procurement Review Board. The original posting date of March 2, 2026, with a due date of March 4, 2026, appears to reflect the public notice timeline rather than the initial solicitation period.

The procurement explicitly restricted applications to individual psychiatric practitioners and prohibited submissions from staffing agencies, locum tenens providers, and consulting firms operating as intermediaries, regardless of credentials or licensure status. This restriction was clarified during the question-and-answer period, with multiple staffing agencies and consulting companies receiving rejections and referrals to Dr. Duncan Stone for potential consideration of future partnership arrangements. The selected vendor, Dr. Jarrod Marks, is the incumbent contractor following the evaluation and award process. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were identified in the solicitation documents. The anticipated contract value, based on the stated compensation structure of $375 per hour and 22 hours per week, projects to approximately $429,000 annually, or approximately $1,716,000 over the four-year contract term. The successful contractor is instructed to refrain from commencing work, purchasing materials, or executing subcontracts until formal contract execution is completed.
