City of Peoria Healthcare Clinic

The City of Peoria, located in Maricopa County, Arizona, has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) P26-0017 seeking a healthcare partner to establish and operate an onsite health center for city employees, retirees, and their dependents. The procurement aims to create a comprehensive healthcare facility serving approximately 1,285 employees, 2,080 dependents, and fewer than 500 retirees by 2029. The proposed healthcare center will deliver advanced primary care, occupational medicine, physical therapy, behavioral health, pharmacy dispensing, and wellness services, with key objectives including stabilizing healthcare costs, reducing on-the-job injuries, and enhancing chronic condition management. Proposals are due by 5:00 P.M. on October 22, 2025, with the contract term expected to commence in Q1 2026 and continue for three years, with potential extensions up to 48 months. The evaluation will be point-based, allocating 200 points for service delivery capability, 250 points for clinical model and patient experience, 250 points for similar project experience, and additional points for reporting capabilities and proposal conformance.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations were explicitly mentioned in the provided documentation. The City of Peoria will require the selected vendor to provide the clinic at no cost to participants, with success metrics focused on patient engagement, clinical outcomes, cost reduction, and return on investment. The city operates a self-funded health plan and anticipates the clinic will help manage healthcare expenses through longer appointment times, improved chronic condition management, and reduced emergency room visits. While no incumbent vendor was identified, the proposal emphasizes the importance of building trust with a diverse workforce and creating a culture of health advocacy. The solicitation was developed in collaboration with Brown & Brown's Advanced Contracting Strategies (ACS) practice, suggesting potential strategic support for the procurement process.
