DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT: The U.S. Army Medical Command (MEDCOM), Center for Health Care Contracting (CHCC), on behalf the Office of the Surgeon General (OTSG), has developed this Request for Information (RFI) to solicit market research information from industry to assist the Government with analysis of a Government requirement and provide commercial insight on performance-based solutions, best practices, possible contractual arrangements, and potential issues and also to identify potential sources in the commercial marketplace for this requirement. The requirement is for the contractor to provide non-personal program/project management support services to support the Behavioral Health Service Line (BHSL) under the OTSG. The BHSL must assess its overall strategy, coordinate with its stakeholders to ensure this team implements its key functions, policies and procedures through a disciplined program of organizational assessment, process improvement, program management, and transformational change when required. As a result, the Contractor shall have extensive knowledge of BHSL programs, policies, related legislative initiatives, and DoD efforts related to this program. The contractor shall be capable of providing support from a wide range of subject matter experts including BH statisticians, analytics, technical programmers, industrial and organizational consultants, and others. Additional information relating to the requirement can be found in the attached DRAFT PWS - OTSG BHSL.
