This is Addendum No. 06 to the Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) for Workforce Leadership Development and Behavioral Outcomes Training. The addendum updates the solicitation timeline for RFP 2324 107. Key dates include a written questions deadline of July 9, 2025 at 2:00 PM, anticipated department answers to questions by September 30, 2025, a proposal response deadline of October 16, 2025 at 10:00 AM, and a public response opening scheduled for October 16, 2025 at 2:00 PM via virtual conferencing. The anticipated award posting date has been revised to November 19, 2025 with a secondary date of February 9, 2026. The project requires vendors to conduct a comprehensive needs assessment and gap analysis across six DCF regions, develop an annual training plan, and deliver leadership development training for program administrators, operations managers, family navigators, and other leadership personnel. Deliverables include initial and annual training plans, workforce leadership training delivery utilizing in-person, virtual, and hybrid formats, quarterly reports, and annual coaching and consultation reports. The contract is anticipated to commence on November 1, 2025, with an initial three-year term.

The RFP evaluates proposals using a comprehensive scoring methodology allocating up to 784 points for programmatic elements and 200 points for financial considerations. Providers must demonstrate the ability to ensure an 85 percent knowledge increase in post-training assessments and 80 percent attendee satisfaction. The contract is structured as a cost-reimbursable agreement with compensation based on actual verified training delivery costs. Financial penalties of $100 daily are imposed for late report submissions or missed deliverable deadlines. The procurement applies statewide across all six DCF regions and does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. Specific budget ranges are not definitively stated in the addendum, though the cost proposal structure allows for flexible pricing with amounts to be determined for each fiscal year. Written questions should be submitted through the Florida MarketPlace vendor portal, and the public response opening will be conducted via GoToMeeting with dial-in options and video conferencing capabilities provided.
