Quick Summary
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), specifically FCI Miami, FL, is issuing a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for Comprehensive Medical Services (CMS). This action approves the continuation of services with NaphCare, Inc. for an interim period from June 1, 2026, to July 31, 2026, with an estimated cost of $425,000.00. This sole-source award is necessary to prevent a lapse in critical medical care for inmates while a new competitive contract is being pursued.
Purpose & Rationale
This JOFOC justifies the BOP's decision to procure CMS for FCI Miami from a single responsible source, NaphCare, Inc. The agency determined that NaphCare is uniquely capable of providing these services without causing serious injury, financial loss, or significant harm to the Government during this interim period. This measure ensures uninterrupted medical services for the inmate population while the Field Acquisition Office actively pursues a new, competitively awarded CMS contract.
Scope of Services
The required services encompass comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health care for the inmate population at FCI Miami. This includes both inpatient and outpatient facility and physician services, as well as specialized outpatient services such as dermatology, ENT, orthopedics, surgery, neurology, urology, ophthalmology, and optometry.
Contract Details
- Contract Type: Monthly firm-fixed-unit-price purchase orders.
- Period of Performance: June 1, 2026, through July 31, 2026.
- Estimated Total Cost: $425,000.00.
- Statutory Authority: FAR DEVIATION 6.104-1(a)(4), citing 41 U.S.C. § 3304(a)(1) and FAR DEVIATION 6.103-1.
- Set-Aside: Not applicable (Sole Source Justification).
Contractor Justification
NaphCare, as the incumbent contractor for over five years, is deemed uniquely qualified to ensure seamless service delivery without interruption. Transitioning to a new provider would require a minimum 30-day service commencement period and an additional 30-60 days for security clearance investigations, which would lead to a critical lapse in medical care. NaphCare's established network and completed credentialing/background clearances are crucial to prevent disruption. The proposed rates are consistent with NaphCare's option year four contract rates, which were established under competitive conditions and deemed fair and reasonable.
Future Actions
The Field Acquisition Office is actively working towards a competitive award of a new CMS contract, which is anticipated to be in place by July 31, 2026. This subsequent requirement will be publicly advertised.
