COVID-19/Screening testing for SARS-CoV-2

Request for Information (RFI)/Sources Sought The Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) seeks to identify sources to provide screening testing for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 in the Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia areas. This RFI is being issued to identify potential sources to facilitate the FMC’s screening testing program for SARS-CoV-2, to test Federal employees and contractor employees who work onsite and who are not fully vaccinated or who have declined to provide their vaccination information. Screening tests are intended to identify asymptomatic or presymptomatic infected individuals without known or suspected exposure to SARS-CoV-2. You may utilize any COVID-19 viral test that the Food and Drug Administration has authorized to detect current infection, such as a PCR or antigen test. Any test utilized must include a report that documents the test result and date and can be provided to the Federal employee or contractor employee who was tested, the FMC, or both. The FMC is a small agency of approximately 120 employees and anticipates that roughly ten tests per week may be required; however, the number could fluctuate. Interested parties are requested to respond to this RFI with detailed information on providing screening testing for employees and contractors of the FMC. Submissions shall be provided in PDF format and shall include: Company Name and contact information. Contractor and Government Entity (CAGE) Code. Specific Methods of Testing to be conducted. Testing locations and hours of operation. The expected time duration between administration of the test to results provided to a tested individual. Documentation of adherence to established testing requirements. A description of the delivery method of test results. The cost per screening test. Identify if services are being provided to other Federal agencies that could be leveraged. Responses to this RFI shall be submitted electronically to Michelle Calhoun at [email protected] and Katona Bryan-Wade at [email protected] by 4:00 PM EDT on Wednesday, August 25, 2021 . The requested information is for planning and market research purposes only and will not be publicly released. This is not a request for a proposal. Respondents will not be notified of any results.
