Drug and Alcohol Testing Services

The 52nd District Court, 1st Division, in Novi, Michigan, requires a qualified vendor to administer observed drug and alcohol testing services for active and prospective participants in its problem-solving treatment court programs and misdemeanor probation. The agency is seeking to solve the challenge of monitoring program compliance through reliable, legally defensible testing methods. The selected provider must conduct observed, same-sex urine analyses, portable breathalyzer tests, oral swabs, and laboratory-based analyses at court-approved community sites. The scope of work requires the provider to screen all specimens for a standard 12-panel of controlled substances, along with additional substances as clinically indicated. The provider must implement a randomized testing system, maintain strict chain-of-custody procedures, and ensure all staff are trained in forensic collection. Additionally, the agency requires the provider to deliver court testimony when necessary and ensure accessibility and cultural competency in service delivery. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires the performance of all testing work to be conducted onsite at the designated community locations. The contract period will span three years, and the agency is currently seeking proposals to determine the budget and pricing structure. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than July 9, 2026. The agency will accept digital proposal submissions via email or through their online portal. The evaluation will focus on the provider's ability to meet the strict forensic collection standards and operational requirements outlined in the request.
