- Description
- The Office of Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), through the Program Support Center, Division of Acquisitions Managements, intends to award a sole source contract using simplified acquisition procedures to Elsworth Dory, 6101 Marlin Lane, Camp Springs, MD 20748. Under the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Regulation (42 CFR Part 8) compliance with narcotic treatment standards are monitored and enforced through a process of on-site surveys and inspections by accrediting bodies. Under this Regulation, an Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) shall be considered for certification by SAMHSA if the program is accredited by a SAMHSA-approved accreditation body. Accreditation, along with additional information, serves as the basis by which SAMHSA will make the determination the opioid treatment services are provided by qualified individuals and that the OTP is in compliance with standards that address the medical use of opioid drugs. For-cause inspections are directed toward programs that are suspected of violating established Federal opioid standards, accreditation elements, providing substandard treatment, threatening the public health or being a possible source of diverted medications. In carrying out these responsibilities, the consultant supports the Director of the Division of Pharmacologic Therapies (DPT), and the Team Leader of the Certification and Waiver Team, DPT, CSAT, and SAMHSA in programs and services of national importance. Understanding of the substance abuse and health delivery systems is essential, as is knowledge of pharmacologic treatment. The purpose of this contract is to obtain expert consultation to CSAT to help assure that CSAT’s regulation of OTPs is consistent with the experience from the past. DPT seeks assistance in facilitating implementation and interpretation of regulations, guidelines, inspectional findings, and proposed compliance actions. The proposed simplified acquisition is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of far 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest by responding to the requirement within 10 days after the date of publication of this notice. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed simplified acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. For further information, please contact Nora Tyson in Rm. 5C-03, Parklawn Building, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, Md. 20857 or on 301-443-5229.
