The Right Solution, Inc.

The Right Solution, Inc., a woman-owned small business headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, delivers substance abuse counseling, mental health treatment, and sex offender treatment services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with no subcontracting footprint in its federal work. The vendor operates exclusively on full-and-open (non-set-aside) federal contracts, though it qualifies for and occasionally receives small-business set-aside designations on select awards; its posture is predominantly prime-delivered, single-vendor service delivery to specialized federal behavioral health programs.

The Right Solution's customer base concentrates heavily on the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Job Corps program, which accounts for 264 of 340 total awards (78% of all awards) and $26.2 million of the $33.9 million combined potential value across the entire portfolio. This dominance reflects the vendor's core specialization: on-site substance abuse counseling, mental health services, and temporary clinical mental health center support at Job Corps residential training centers across multiple states. Representative work includes a $385,250 total small business set-aside definitive contract with USDA Forest Service Job Corps for mental health services at the Harpers Ferry Job Corps Center in West Virginia (March 1, 2022, exercised through February 28, 2027), a $595,875 total small business set-aside definitive contract for mental health counseling services at the Boxelder Job Corps Center in South Dakota (February 1, 2022, through January 31, 2027), and numerous $20,000 to $80,000 delivery orders and BPA calls for substance abuse counseling at individual Job Corps centers including Pine Knot (Kentucky), Mingo (Missouri), Angell (Oregon), and Lyndon B. Johnson (North Carolina). The second-largest customer is the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Central Office (19 awards, $5.6 million combined potential value), with recent delivery orders valued at $97,640 (October 1, 2026) and $65,206 (May 1, 2026) for substance use, mental health, and sex offender treatment services in St. Louis. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 accounts for 28 awards ($604 thousand potential value), primarily small employee assistance program calls against the vendor's GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract.

The Right Solution holds two large indefinite-delivery vehicles with the USDA Forest Service Job Corps anchoring its delivery footprint: Indefinite Delivery Contract AG82A7C140094 (132 task orders, $3.6 million combined potential value) for temporary career, mental health, and counseling services, and Indefinite Delivery Contract 1282A720D0002 (93 task orders, $3.4 million combined potential value) for substance abuse counseling at multiple Job Corps centers nationwide. The vendor also operates under a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (38 task orders, $758 thousand combined potential value) and holds a Blanket Purchase Agreement 1282A721A0002 (20 task orders, $1.5 million combined potential value) with the Forest Service Job Corps. These vehicles enable rapid deployment of counseling services across the national Job Corps infrastructure.

Award activity has declined markedly: 39 awards in 2022, declining to 21 in 2023, 13 in 2024, 2 in 2025, and 3 in 2026 year-to-date. This contraction reflects the natural completion of multi-year Job Corps delivery orders and BPA calls rather than competitive loss; the recompete cliff for the next twenty-four months carries only five awards with $1.3 million combined potential value, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure. The Right Solution operates 100% as a prime contractor with no identified subcontractors across 340 awards, performing all clinical and counseling services directly with its own licensed and credentialed clinical staff.

Service Contract Inventory reporting captures minimal federal service-contract activity above the $150,000 threshold: $64 thousand in invoiced revenue in FY2022 (0.3 FTEs) with no SCI-reportable activity in FY2023 or FY2024. This reflects the vendor's concentration on individual task orders and BPA calls in the $20,000 to $100,000 range—each individually below the SCI reporting floor—aggregating across hundreds of small awards rather than consolidating work under large prime service contracts. Government-paid hourly rates on the one SCI record ran $125/hr, consistent with substance abuse counselor and mental health technician labor in federal facilities. The vendor does not engage subcontractors on its federal work, building all service delivery capacity internally.

The Right Solution offers outpatient mental health counseling services to both individuals and government organizations. Employee Assistance Program services are available nationwide.
