City Wide Occupational Health Services

The City of Tucson is seeking proposals for comprehensive occupational health services through RFP No. 240140, targeting medical and behavioral health services for city employees. The procurement is divided into two distinct groups: Group A (Occupational Medicine) and Group B (Behavioral Health Services). Group A services encompass medical examinations, surveillance, post-offer physicals, DOT commercial driver's license medical exams, asbestos and respirator medical evaluations, drug and alcohol testing, vaccinations, audiometric testing, fitness for duty and return to work evaluations, and workers compensation services. Group B focuses on mental health counseling, psychotherapy, and chemical dependency/addiction counseling. The proposal is due on September 19, 2024, at 2:00 P.M. local Arizona time, with a pre-submittal conference scheduled for August 29, 2024, at 9:00 A.M. via Microsoft Teams. Potential vendors must demonstrate appropriate professional credentials, comply with federal and state regulations, including DOT requirements, and maintain necessary licenses and certifications. The City intends to award contracts by group and may select one or more suppliers per group, with offerors permitted to submit proposals for one or both groups.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations, but the attached FTA Terms and Conditions document suggests potential emphasis on disadvantaged business enterprises (DBE) and compliance with federal procurement guidelines. The contract term is one year, with potential for up to four additional one-year extensions. While specific total contract value is not disclosed, the RFP includes detailed unit pricing for various medical services, with individual costs for physical examinations, drug screenings, counseling sessions, and specialized tests. The procurement appears to be open to healthcare providers, occupational health clinics, medical practices, and behavioral health organizations capable of delivering comprehensive employee health services. The City of Tucson will evaluate proposals based on service capabilities, pricing, compliance with requirements, and the ability to provide comprehensive, high-quality occupational and behavioral health services. Potential contractors must be prepared to integrate with existing city human resources and administrative systems, demonstrating flexibility and technological compatibility.
