The process of selecting a new vendor would require additional time and resources to establish the same capacity, and would result in delays in service while the city prepares for a winter Covid-19 surge and increase of cases. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the City to enter into a Negotiated Acquisition, limited pool of one vendor with HEALTHQUEST ESOTERICS INC. for these required services.
Description

DOHMH intends to enter into a limited pool Negotiated Acquisition with HEALTHQUEST ESOTERICS INC to provide lab diagnostic services for COVID-19, Flu, and possible other nasal/respiratory illnesses. The service would include sending specimen collection kits to facilities designated by DOHMH which would be shipped back to lab for lab processing/diagnostic. The diagnostic services are in a variety of settings to prevent, detect, mitigate, and surveille communicable disease outbreaks, including but not limited to COVID-19, influenza, RSV, Hepatitis A, measles, and mumps outbreaks. Services may be rendered in all five New York City boroughs in congregate residential settings with clinical staff (e.g., skilled nursing facilities (SNFs)/nursing homes, adult care facilities and substance use treatment centers) as well as non-congregate settings where clinical staff can collect specimens and arrange for transportation contracted lab. The lab would then report results back to DOHMH via DOHMH secure network.
