About this file
This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) document from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), a law enforcement division of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS). The BCA seeks proposals for comprehensive wellness services designed to provide education, training, and support to personnel exposed to traumatic incidents during their work. The target population includes approximately 170 investigators in the Investigative Services Division and 50 staff members in the Crime Scene Program and the Digital and Multimedia Evidence section. The services aim to address stress-related conditions including anxiety, depression, somatization, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and burnout among BCA employees. The proposal should demonstrate a proactive approach to supporting employee wellbeing and preventing negative coping mechanisms that can develop from repeated exposure to traumatic material and incidents.
The document outlines the BCA's commitment to implementing a comprehensive wellness initiative to mitigate the psychological and physiological impacts of occupational trauma on its workforce. The RFP emphasizes the critical need for professional mental health and wellness services that can be integrated into the organization's broader employee support infrastructure. Specific details regarding pricing structure, contract term, response deadlines, proposal submission requirements, and evaluation criteria are contained within the full RFP document. The BCA anticipates awarding a contract to a qualified vendor or service provider capable of delivering evidence-based wellness programming tailored to the unique occupational stressors experienced by law enforcement personnel.

Event Description The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (“BCA”), a law enforcement division of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety (“DPS”), requests proposals for services to assist in education, training, and support of BCA personnel who are exposed to traumatic incidents in their work.

Exposures can result in a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, somatization, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and burnout. Unaddressed, these can lead to developing negative coping mechanisms. It is essential BCA take a proactive approach and support the overall wellbeing of its personnel.
