This appears to be a compressed ZIP file containing Solicitation Addendum 1 for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's (HHSC) Request for Proposals (RFP) for Conference Planning and Coordination Services for the Council on Sex Offender Treatment (CSOT). The RFP seeks a contractor to plan and coordinate a two-day annual statewide training conference, offering continuing education units (CEUs) for sex offender treatment providers. The conference may be held either in-person or virtually. Key deliverables include comprehensive conference planning, speaker management, registration coordination, event logistics, and post-conference reporting. Proposals are due by December 20, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. Central Time, with a three-year contract term and two possible one-year extensions.

The contract is structured as a zero-dollar agreement, with the contractor generating revenue through conference registration fees and booth/exhibit sales. The contractor may be reimbursed for travel, lodging, and other expenses related to HHSC employees and CSOT council members. While no specific set-asides are mentioned, related Texas state contracts include provisions for small and minority-owned businesses. The ideal contractor should have experience in professional conference planning, particularly in behavioral health and professional training sectors, with capabilities to support both in-person and virtual conference formats.
