DOI Seeks Market Input on On-Site Wellness Services in Washington

The Department of the Interior (DOI), through the Interior Business Center Acquisition Services Directorate, is conducting market research on potential on-site, non-clinical physical wellness services at the Stewart L. Udall Building in Washington, DC. The agency is seeking information about available services and provider capabilities, with examples including assisted stretching, flexology, massage, soft-tissue bodywork, and mobility and functional-movement support. This activity is an information-gathering step, not a request for proposals or other solicitation.

The stated schedule gives interested businesses a near-term opportunity to shape the agency’s understanding of the market. Responses to the RFI are due October 29, 2026, and DOI plans to hold an Industry Day on November 4, 2026. Providers should consult the referenced RFI materials for response instructions and details. The Industry Day is an opportunity to engage with the agency about the potential service scope; participation should not be interpreted as a promise of a later procurement or award.

For contractors, the central market-research issue is fit: the agency is exploring physical wellness support that is explicitly described as non-clinical. Companies responding should clearly explain which services they offer, how those services address the listed physical wellness needs, and how their proposed work is distinct from clinical care. Useful capability information may include service delivery approaches and the provider’s ability to support on-site delivery, while responses should remain aligned with the RFI’s actual questions and requirements rather than assume specifications that have not been provided.

This is an early-stage signal for wellness providers, not evidence of a funded requirement or an imminent award. The market-research response and Industry Day can help DOI assess provider capabilities and refine its understanding of possible services at the building. Interested firms should prioritize the October 29 deadline, review the source materials, and use the November 4 event to seek clarification on potential scope. The available notice does not identify a contract value, solicitation number, award timeline, or selected vendor.
