This is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the Oregon Department of Human Services, Office of Contracts and Procurement, dated November 13, 2025, regarding solicitation #S-10000-00013061 for Family Search and Engagement services. The procurement sought qualified vendors to provide comprehensive family support and engagement solutions within the child welfare and social services sector. An evaluation committee independently scored all responsive proposals and determined that Boys & Girls Aid and Greater Oregon Behavioral Health Inc. represent the most qualified proposers for contract award. Contract execution remains contingent upon successful negotiations between the Agency and the selected proposer(s). The original solicitation established a proposal due date of September 30, 2025, with the evaluation and award process completed by November 13, 2025.

The procurement process incorporated rigorous vendor vetting procedures, including requirements for proposers to demonstrate technical capabilities, provide references, and meet strict certification and responsibility standards. The solicitation included provisions promoting diversity in contracting through COBID (Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity) considerations, suggesting potential preferences for disadvantaged or minority-owned businesses. The comprehensive nature of the required documentation, including sample contracts, proposer information and certification forms, and detailed responsibility inquiry materials, indicates a significant contract opportunity structured to evaluate both technical merit and organizational capacity to deliver family engagement services. Specific contract value and term length were not disclosed in the Intent to Award Notice.
