The District of Columbia Department of Corrections (DOC) has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) seeking a licensed Clinical Psychologist to conduct pre and post conditional offer of employment screenings. This procurement opportunity is specifically targeted at professionals with extensive experience in law enforcement and correctional facility environments. The clinical psychologist will be responsible for performing comprehensive psychological evaluations for potential DOC employees, which likely involves assessing candidate mental fitness, psychological stability, and suitability for working in a corrections setting. The solicitation was posted on December 30, 2011, with a relatively tight response window, requiring interested candidates to submit their proposals by January 3, 2012. Critical qualifications include current licensure as a Clinical Psychologist, demonstrated expertise in correctional and law enforcement psychological assessment, and the ability to conduct thorough pre-employment and conditional offer screenings. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, it can be reasonably inferred that professional credentials, relevant experience, and assessment capabilities will be primary considerations in vendor selection.

No specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions were mentioned in the contract opportunity description. The procurement appears to be a targeted professional services engagement focused on obtaining a highly specialized clinical psychology professional. Without additional context, the potential award value or budget range is not specified in the original document. The procurement seems to be a direct, focused solicitation for a specific professional service rather than a broad competitive bidding process. Given the narrow timeframe and specific professional requirements, this appears to be a strategic, time-sensitive hiring support service for the District of Columbia Department of Corrections. The psychological screening services are likely critical for maintaining high standards of employee mental fitness and organizational safety within the corrections environment.
