Notice ID (POTS): 26-007097
Product Service Code (PSC): R499 - Support - Professional: Other
NAICS Code: 813110 - Religious Organizations
Place of Performance: National Institutes of Health
Clinical Center
Bethesda, MD 20892
Notice
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), Clinical Center, intends to award a sole-source contract for Jewish Pediatric Chaplaincy Services. The contractor shall provide pediatric spiritual care, faith-specific Jewish religious services, counseling, interdisciplinary participation, staff support, administrative support, and on-call coverage for the Clinical Center Spiritual Care Department. The anticipated period of performance consists of a one-year base period with an anticipated start date of 08/05/2026 to 08/04/2027.
Requirement
The NIH Clinical Center (CC) is the world-s largest hospital dedicated solely to research. Located in Bethesda, Maryland, the CC provides clinical care and services to patients participating in human subjects research protocols of the Intramural Research Program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Services are provided in both inpatient and outpatient settings. The contractor is responsible for providing spiritual care services to CC patients, their families and caregivers as well as to CC staff. Spiritual Care at the CC is available to all regardless of religious belief or philosophical commitments.
Sole-Source Rationale
Henrique Bass is uniquely qualified based on his demonstrated pediatric chaplaincy experience; ability to provide faith-specific Jewish spiritual care; extensive knowledge of the NIH Clinical Center research environment; program management and information technology support experience; and professional chaplain certification. Continuity of care is essential for pediatric patients and families, and substitution would create unnecessary disruption to patient care and departmental operations.
