Comprehensive Medical Review and Personal Injury Analysis Services

The City of Dallas, located in Dallas County, Texas, is soliciting a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for comprehensive medical review and personal injury analysis services through solicitation BDZ26-00029387. The procurement seeks firms with qualified professionals including physicians, nurses, certified medical coders, and engineers specializing in biomechanics or causation analysis to provide five-year, as-needed services supporting the City Attorney's Office and Office of Risk Management. Required services include medical peer review, billing audit evaluations, causation analysis, biomechanical reconstruction, and related consulting services for evaluating personal injury claims from motor vehicle accidents, premises liability, constitutional torts, and other tort-related incidents. Proposals will be evaluated based on three criteria: Experience and Qualifications (50 points), Approach to the Assignment (25 points), and Availability to City Staff (25 points). Key procurement dates include a pre-proposal meeting on January 1, 2026, written questions due by January 23, 2026 at 11:00 AM, and final solicitation submissions due on February 13, 2026 at 1:00 PM through the City's online Bonfire solicitation portal.

The solicitation emphasizes local workforce participation, with preference given to firms with principal places of business in Dallas or those meeting local workforce composition requirements of having at least 20 percent full-time employees who are Dallas residents. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly stated, the procurement encourages small and local business participation through the Team Make-Up and Local Workforce Form. The City reserves the right to award one or multiple indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contracts and will only compensate for services actually rendered, with no retainer or non-performance-based fees allowed. Contractors must comply with a living wage requirement of $23.06 per hour for contracts exceeding $50,000 and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability, Professional Liability, and Cyber/Technology Network Liability insurance. While specific contract values are not detailed, the five-year term and as-needed service model suggests flexibility in potential engagement and compensation based on actual claim evaluations and service requirements.
