Atlantic County, New Jersey is soliciting proposals under RFP #202620.3, Certain Alcohol/Drug Abuse Treatment Services for the Department of Human Services, Division of Public Health, Substance Abuse Services Unit. The County’s current public notice states that proposals must be submitted online through BidExpress by October 1, 2026 at 11:00 AM. The notice does not expressly state a timezone. Questions must be submitted through BidExpress by September 21, 2026 at 12:00 PM. Paper proposals are not accepted.
The public scope covers ASAM continuum services including inpatient withdrawal management, short-term residential treatment for adults and adolescents, intensive outpatient services for adults, adolescents and dual-diagnosed Atlantic County residents, prevention and education services for Atlantic County students and IDRC clients, and peer/recovery mentoring supports. Eligible responders must demonstrate sufficient drug/alcohol treatment experience and expertise and be appropriately licensed or certified by the State of New Jersey.
The procurement is funded through the County Comprehensive Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Grant (Chapter 51). The public County notice does not state an award amount or guaranteed contract value, so Atlas does not infer one. The County notice displays a funded period of January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026 even though the solicitation was posted in September 2026; a current secondary procurement extraction reports January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2027. That discrepancy must be resolved against the controlling BidExpress package and any addenda before submission.
Atlas assessment: Atlas Opportunity Score 95/100. N9+ Fit Score 0/100. This is a strong New Jersey behavioral-health procurement, but the verified public scope is licensed substance-use treatment, prevention, education and recovery-support services rather than remote physical examination or healthcare technology. Dr. Miltie/QC Healthcare direct-prime eligibility is not established and should not be represented without the required New Jersey treatment licenses/certifications and full RFP qualification review.
