The original solicitation, advertised on June 12, 2025, seeks a contractor to develop, maintain, and enhance child care training curriculum modules and competency exams for both online and instructor-led delivery through the Child Care Resource and Information Network (CCRAIN) system. The RFP includes developing new courses, adapting existing materials, conducting stakeholder feedback sessions, generating assessment items, and providing technical support. The original response deadline was August 21, 2025, with subsequent addenda issued on July 31, 2025 (Addendum No. 01 containing vendor question responses), and August 22, 2025 (Addendum No. 02 addressing financial scoring). The anticipated contract start date is January 1, 2026, with a two-year initial term. The total contract value is anticipated not to exceed $1,995,576.00, structured as a fixed-price agreement with pricing varying by course length and development tasks.

Addendum No. 02 specifically modifies Section 5.2.2 Financial Scoring by establishing a formula for evaluating the financial portion of proposals: (N/X) × Y = Z, where N represents the lowest cost received among all responses, X represents the respondent's cost, Y represents the maximum cost points available (200 points), and Z equals the points awarded for the financial scoring portion. This amendment clarifies the competitive scoring methodology for cost evaluation. The RFP requires 100% task completion, quarterly reporting, and minimum system functionality of 97% operational level, with financial penalties of 5% reduction on quarterly invoices for unaccepted deliverables. No specific set-aside designations were identified in available documentation. The procurement is specifically for Leon County within the State of Florida.
