The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

It is the policy of SCDMH to seek accreditation surveys for rehabilitation programs at SCDMH Community Mental Health Centers (CMHC's) and Morris Village Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Center.  There are only a few accrediting organizations in the medical facility field that are recognized nationwide; Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organization (JCAHO) and CARF.  JCAHO only accredits entire facilities such as hospitals, not individuals' programs within a facility.  CARF is the nationally recognized accrediting body for programs such as those operated by CMHC's and Morris Village, and it is the largest accrediting body.  CARF will provide under the sole source accreditation for rehabilitation programs operated by CMHC's and Morris Village Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Center.  The client population serviced is psychiatrically and medically stable.  JCAHO standards are based upon a hospital setting (client population that is psychiatrically and/or medically unstable), they are not applicable to the rehabilitation model used in the CMHC's and at Morris Village.  Sole Source will be five (5) years starting March 15, 2023-March 14, 2028.  The annual amount to be paid is $50,000 with a maximum sole source of $20,000.  For the reasons above, this vendor is determined to be the only suitable and acceptable offeror.  The price is fair and reasonable.
