About this file

This is a Cancellation Notice issued by the Georgia Department of Human Services (DHS) regarding four Request for Proposals (RFPs) for Wrap-Around Support Services, Comprehensive Child and Family Assessment, Early Interventions, and Homestead Services (Event #s: 42700-DHS0000286, 42700-DHS0000285, 42700-DHS0000289, 42700-DHS0000290). The State Entity, in coordination with the Department of Administrative Services, has cancelled the traditional RFP procurement process due to a consistently high percentage of supplier disqualifications. The Division of Family and Children Services (DFCS) will instead transition to a streamlined application process that provides greater flexibility for prospective vendors while reducing strict administrative bidding requirements. The new application process will be posted on the DFCS website in early fall 2018, with one or more informational meetings scheduled to outline the new procedures to interested parties.

The streamlined application process will allow for continuous submission of applications rather than requiring submissions within narrow bidding windows, and DHS will work collaboratively with applicants to obtain all required information if initial submissions are incomplete. This approach is intended to simplify the contracting process and enable qualified organizations to more readily partner with the State. Interested parties should monitor the Georgia Procurement Registry for future instructions and updates regarding the new service solicitation process. Questions may be directed to Fernando Puerto at fernando.puerto@dhs.ga.gov.

CANCELLATION NOTICE

SOURCING EVENT

Event#: 42700-DHS0000286, 42700-DHS0000285, 42700-DHS0000289, 42700-DHS0000290

Title: Wrap-Around Support Services, Comprehensive Child and Family Assessment, Early Interventions, Homestead Services

The above mentioned Request for Proposals (RFP) has been cancelled. Due to the high percentage of suppliers being consistently disqualified, the State Entity with the guidance of the Department of Administrative Services has determined to change vendor solicitation into a streamlined application process which provides greater flexibility for all parties involved, rather than as a traditional procurement which is subject to procurement regulations necessitating stricter conformance with administrative bidding requirements.

The State Entity will post the streamlined application process on the Division of Family and Children Services’ (“DFCS”) website early this fall and will host one or more meetings to provide information to interested parties regarding the new process. Please be assured, it is the goal of the State to make this a more flexible process in which it is simpler for qualified organizations to contract with the State. The new process will allow for continuous submission of applications (rather than require submissions during a narrow bidding window) and will allow DHS to work with applicants to obtain all required information in the event that an initial submission is incomplete. Please monitor the Georgia Procurement Registry for future instructions for this service.

Questions regarding this Cancellation Notice may be directed to Fernando Puerto, at fernando.puerto@dhs.ga.gov.
