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

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB605CO20002512) for Pre-Employment/Post Offer Physicals and/or Annual Respiratory Physicals, seeking contractors to provide comprehensive medical services statewide. The solicitation requires contractors to conduct physical examinations for job applicants and perform annual respiratory clearance physicals, with an estimated 50 participants statewide. Services must include detailed medical evaluations such as obtaining medical histories, performing comprehensive physical tests (including heart rate, blood pressure, audiometric testing, vision tests, and musculoskeletal assessments), and drug collection in compliance with Department of Health and Human Services guidelines. Contractors must provide these services within two working days of MoDOT's request and submit all reports to the Central Office Risk and Benefits Management Division. The bid period runs from May 29, 2020, to June 16, 2020, with a contract term of three years and two optional one-year renewal periods. Qualified contractors must be board certified/board eligible or have at least three years of experience in occupational medicine, and must provide all necessary healthcare professionals, services, materials, equipment, and supplies.

The solicitation encourages Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation, specifically targeting 10% MBE and 5% WBE involvement through subcontractors, suppliers, joint ventures, or other arrangements. While participation is encouraged, it is not a mandatory requirement for contract award. Contractors must maintain specific insurance coverages, including general liability ($500,000 per person/$3,000,000 per occurrence), automobile liability with similar limits, and workers' compensation insurance compliant with state law. The contract will be awarded to multiple bidders located throughout Missouri, with vendor selection based on geographical proximity to job applicants. Pricing will be firm fixed for the initial contract period, with potential price increases during renewal periods not exceeding the maximum percentage stated in the bid. Payment terms are net 30 days, with invoicing limited to twice monthly. Although no specific contract value is mentioned, MoDOT reserves the right to add additional contractors during the contract period to ensure comprehensive service coverage across the state.
