SSA - Survey Services

The Idaho Department of Administration, Division of Purchasing, has issued a sole source authorization notice for the Idaho Office of Drug Policy to purchase The National College Health Assessment from the American College Health Association. This procurement is being conducted under Idaho Code section 67-9221, with the Division of Purchasing Administrator determining that this vendor is uniquely qualified to provide the specified service. The sole source procurement involves a specific survey service targeting college health assessment data, with the primary objective of obtaining comprehensive health-related information from college populations. Interested vendors have a five-business-day window to challenge the sole source procurement by submitting written notice to purchasing@adm.idaho.gov. The contract opportunity was posted on July 24, 2025, with a response deadline of July 29, 2025, providing a narrow timeframe for potential challenges or alternative vendor considerations.

While no specific set-aside designations or vendor restrictions are explicitly mentioned in the notice, the procurement appears to be a targeted, specialized acquisition with limited competitive bidding. The sole source nature of the contract suggests that the American College Health Association is the exclusive provider of this specific assessment tool. No incumbent vendor information or existing infrastructure details are provided beyond the current procurement. The notice does not specify a precise award value or budget range for the survey services. Potential respondents are advised to review the attached documentation in the IPRO (Idaho Procurement) system for additional details about the procurement process, submission requirements, and any supplemental information regarding the National College Health Assessment.
