About this file

This document is an April 2024 update summary of changes to the Request for Response (RFR) specifications for the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services (DDS) contract opportunity. The changes include updating the language related to current dollar limits, adding that the RFR will result in a qualified list of bidders, and changing the contract type from single engagement each year to a master contract. The RFR calendar date has been updated to allow bidders to submit proposals up to January 31, 2028. The specifications have been updated to include language that the program is contingent on available financial resources, and the invoice requirements now include specific details that must be included on the invoice.

The contract opportunity is for Massachusetts technical schools that offer Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Certificate programs to partner with DDS to encourage and support DDS employees to obtain their LPN certificate. This is a state-level contract opportunity in Massachusetts.
