Overview of the Requirement.
The requirement is subject to change. This overview is intended to provide information as we survey the market; therefore, upon reviewing the requirement, if your business is capable, please complete the Contractor Capability Survey (page 3):
Overview. The requirement is a non-personal services effort providing professional medical services as Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to the Aerospace medical standards program at Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA), Randolph Air Force Base, TX.
The services include medical related expertise specific to the perspective programs supporting the Government agency since it functions as the Department of the Air Force (DAF) medical certification and waiver authority conducting occupational suitability risk assessments and analysis for all individuals applying for enlistment, commissioning, flight training, and other AF special operational duty accession programs; including the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), Air Force Reserve Officer Training Center (ROTC), United States Medical Enlisted Processing Centers (MEPS), Air Force Reserves, Air National Guard, and DoD Medical Evaluation Review Board (DoD MERB).
Requirements. The services include an estimate of three (3) SMEs: Aerospace Medical Technicians (Flight & Operational Medical Technicians); (1) SME: Aerospace Medicine Specialist Physician (Flight Surgeon); and (1) SME: Clinical Psychologist (Mental Health Provider). The SMEs will support the Government agency by performing services that include medical standards consultation, specifically in the areas of military service, data inputs and updates to an exclusive government provided database on medical certification, waivers, and cases of attrition from training, secondary to medical issues and standards. The contractor shall provide the personnel, management, transportation, and quality control. Again, each SME has a different level of experience that will be outlined in the final PWS; however, for the sake of this survey, it will give potentially interested contractors an idea of the requirement.
