This is Addendum 3 to a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the North Carolina Department of Public Safety, Division of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, for pre-employment and fitness-for-duty psychological evaluation services. The solicitation requests proposals for psychological services including review of MMPI-2-RF test results followed by psychological interviews and assessments, fitness-for-duty evaluations, and psychological screening examination oversight services. The Department estimates approximately 400 pre-employment psychological assessments, 7 fitness-for-duty evaluations, and ongoing monthly screening oversight services annually, though these figures are not guaranteed. All evaluations must be performed by doctoral-level psychologists licensed in North Carolina with capability to conduct assessments both in-person and virtually across multiple facility locations statewide. Applicants must be scheduled within five business days of Department request. The initial contract term is one year, with the State holding the option to renew for up to two additional one-year terms at its sole discretion, with written notice of renewal intent required no later than thirty days before term expiration. Proposals were due July 23, 2026 at 2:00 PM EST, with written questions due by July 6, 2026 at 5:00 PM.

Vendor pricing shall be submitted on a per-service basis with unit costs for pre-employment assessments, fitness-for-duty evaluations, and monthly screening oversight services, plus additional line items for specialized testing including AASI licensing fees and comprehensive evaluations. Addendum 3, issued July 23, 2026, removes all Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) requirements and references from the solicitation due to the elimination of the Office for Historically Underutilized Businesses by the North Carolina General Assembly. All other terms, conditions, specifications, and requirements of the solicitation remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Vendors must be registered with the North Carolina Secretary of State and in good standing in the eVP system.
