Emergency Procurement Notice – Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities Services

This emergency procurement notice announces that the South Carolina Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (OIDD) has entered into a contract with Correct Care of SC, LLC dba Recovery Solutions to continue providing critical housing, psychiatric, therapeutic, and inpatient services for highly vulnerable consumers who cannot be placed elsewhere. The agency cited an imminent expiration of an existing arrangement and the lack of alternative placement options as the basis for invoking South Carolina’s emergency procurement authority (S.C. Code §11‑35‑1570). The contract amount is $5,758,833.00, and the procurement was executed without a competitive bidding process due to the urgent nature of the services required. • Scope: Residential care, psychiatric treatment, and therapeutic services for individuals with severe behavioral health needs. • Justification: Immediate risk to consumer safety and well‑being if services were interrupted; no other qualified providers available. • Procurement mechanism: Emergency sole‑source award under state code, bypassing standard open competition.
