How to bid on Psychological and Psychiatric Services for LA County Sheriff
What the agency is buying
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) is seeking qualified psychologists and psychiatrists. These professionals will provide intermittent, temporary, confidential counseling and brief psychotherapy services. The services are for LASD employees and their family members or significant others.
This is a continuous Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) to build a pool of vendors. The department aims to contract with these professionals to support the LASD Psychologists assigned to the Employee Support Services Bureau.
Key dates and deadlines
This is a continuous solicitation, meaning the County accepts responses on a rolling basis. There is no fixed deadline for submissions, and the solicitation will remain open until the Department’s needs are met. The original publication date was June 09, 2006.
Questions regarding the RFSQ were to be submitted in writing by June 27, 2006. However, since this is a continuous solicitation, interested vendors should still review the RFSQ for current submission details.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for qualified psychologists and psychiatrists. Firms or individuals with expertise in providing confidential counseling, brief psychotherapy, and solution-oriented psychological interventions are encouraged to respond. The services will support law enforcement personnel and their families.
Vendors should be able to demonstrate their ability to meet the requirements outlined in the RFSQ, including the Statement of Work in Appendices B and B1, and other contractual requirements.

Tips for a competitive response
Carefully review all sections of the Request for Statement of Qualifications, especially Appendices B and B1, which detail the Statement of Work. Ensure your response directly addresses all specified requirements and demonstrates your firm's capability to provide the requested services.
Highlight your experience in providing confidential counseling and psychotherapy, particularly in contexts that may involve high-stress professions or employee support programs. Clearly outline your qualifications, certifications, and any relevant past performance that aligns with the LASD's needs for brief, solution-oriented psychological interventions. Since this is a continuous solicitation, ensure your submission is thorough and stands out among ongoing responses.
