Addendum #1 - REVISED Schedule of Events Summary

This addendum revises the schedule of events for the Statewide Guardian ad Litem (SGAL) RFP 202526-01 issued by the Florida Statewide Guardian ad Litem Office. The solicitation seeks proposals for a comprehensive Client Case Management System (CCMS) software and implementation services to replace the current Optima case file system and support case file management, volunteer record management, document creation and storage, reporting, and research capabilities. A non-mandatory pre-proposal vendor conference was held on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at 11 am EST. The revised deadline for proposal submissions is Friday, February 20, 2026, at 4 pm EST, with proposals to be opened on Monday, February 23, 2026, at 9 am EST. Shortlisted vendors will be notified the week of March 16, 2026, followed by vendor demonstrations the week of March 26, 2026, and a notice of determination posted on April 2, 2026. The deadline for vendors to submit questions was Monday, January 12, 2026, at 5 pm EST.

Due to the volume and complexity of vendor questions, SGAL will issue two separate question and answer addendums. Addendum #2, addressing solicitation document, process, operational, and IT questions, will be posted the week of January 19, 2026. Addendum #3, containing answers to more technical questions requiring additional analysis time, will be posted the week of January 30, 2026. Both addendums will be available on the Florida Vendor Information Portal and the Florida Guardian ad Litem website. All submission requirements from Section 4 of the RFP solicitation document remain unchanged, and vendors must refer to the original RFP documentation to ensure proposals meet all format and submission requirements. The revised final submission deadline and all subsequent deadlines have been adjusted to provide proposers with adequate time to review question and answer materials.
