Pre-Employment/Post Offer Physicals and/or Annual Respiratory Physicals

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB605CO20000010) for Pre-Employment/Post Offer Physicals and Annual Respiratory Physicals, targeting medical service providers across the state. The procurement seeks contractors to perform comprehensive medical examinations for job applicants and annual respiratory clearance physicals, with an estimated 50 participants statewide potentially requiring annual respiratory physicals. Qualified vendors must be board certified/board eligible or have at least three years of experience in occupational medicine, capable of conducting detailed medical tests including heart rate, blood pressure, audiometric testing, vision screening, urinalysis, musculoskeletal evaluations, blood chemistry, pulmonary function tests, and chest x-rays. The solicitation specifies that services must be performed within two working days of MoDOT's request, with providers required to maintain medical records for seven years and comply with OSHA standards. The bid period runs from July 1, 2019, to July 25, 2019, with bids due by 8:00 PM GMT on the closing date, and vendors must be registered in the MissouriBUYS procurement system to access full solicitation details.

The IFB encourages participation from minority and women-owned businesses, specifically seeking 10% Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and 5% Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation through subcontractors, suppliers, or joint ventures. Awards will be made to multiple bidders throughout Missouri, with contract assignments based on geographical proximity to job applicants' home addresses. The initial contract term is one year, with options for three additional one-year renewals, and MoDOT reserves the right to add additional vendors during the contract period to ensure adequate state coverage. Payment terms are net 30 days, with invoicing limited to twice monthly and contractors prohibited from billing individual MoDOT employees directly. While no specific total contract value is provided, pricing must remain firm during the initial contract period, with potential renewal increases subject to MoDOT's approval. The solicitation indicates that MoDOT does not guarantee minimum service usage, and contractors will be selected based on meeting mandatory business and licensing criteria, with the closest qualified provider receiving purchase orders.
