Bioterrorism Hospital Preparedness with Missouri Hospital Association - DHSS

The State of Missouri, specifically the Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS), is conducting a Single Feasible Source Services (SFSS) procurement for Bioterrorism Hospital Preparedness services in collaboration with the Missouri Hospital Association. The solicitation covers services to be delivered across Clark County and Jefferson City, with a contract period from July 1, 2019, through June 30, 2020. The procurement is designed to enhance hospital preparedness for potential bioterrorism incidents, though specific detailed service requirements are not explicitly outlined in the provided documents. Vendors were required to submit responses between September 7, 2019, at 9:30 AM CDT and September 13, 2019, at 3:00 PM CDT, with submissions accepted either electronically through the MissouriBUYS system or as hard copies to the Division of Purchasing. The solicitation does not specify line items, evaluation criteria, or technical specifications, and vendors were instructed to review the full requirements through the MissouriBUYS system Overview tab. The primary point of contact for questions was Kelsey Huwe at the Division of Purchasing in Jefferson City.

While the solicitation is technically open to all vendors, it is designated as a Single Feasible Source Services contract, which strongly suggests that the Missouri Hospital Association is the intended and likely sole vendor. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses were mentioned in the documentation. The solicitation does not provide details about incumbent vendors, existing infrastructure, or technology integration requirements. Payment terms are established at Net 45 Days with Free On Board Destination delivery terms. No specific award value, budget range, or total contract value was disclosed in the available documents. The lack of detailed financial information, specific service requirements, and explicit evaluation criteria suggests this is a targeted procurement primarily intended to continue an existing relationship with the Missouri Hospital Association for ongoing bioterrorism hospital preparedness services.
