INTRODUCTION

1.1 Description of University

The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio — also called UT Health San Antonio (UTHSA) — has a mission to make lives better through excellence in education, research, health care and community engagement. As the largest academic research institution in South Texas, reflected by an annual research portfolio of approximately $413 million, the university is designated as a Hispanic-Serving Institution by the U.S. Department of Education.

UT Health San Antonio’s professional schools of medicine, nursing, dentistry, health professions, graduate biomedical sciences and public health have graduated more than 43,886 alumni who are leading change, advancing their fields and renewing hope for patients and their families throughout South Texas and the world.

One of 14 UT System institutions, UT Health San Antonio has launched the newest of its six schools, the UT School of Public Health San Antonio. Now enrolling students into its Master of Public Health program, this school’s primary focus will be preparing its graduate students for developing and enacting public health policy that serves, specifically, the communities of South Texas.

Another significant reflection of UT Health San Antonio's phenomenal growth is its $472 million UT Health San Antonio Multispecialty and Research Hospital, which opened in December 2024.

The hospital will deliver specialty surgeries and advanced cancer care while focusing on enhancing access to advanced medical care, specialized oncology services and clinical trials for patients throughout South Texas.

For three years in a row, UT Health San Antonio has made Forbes' list of Best-in-State health services employers, and its schools of medicine, nursing and health professions rank in the nation’s top 50 by U.S. News & World Report.

The university employs a diverse workforce of more than 8,500; administers an annual operating budget of $1.46 billion; and stewards clinical practices in medicine, cancer, dentistry, nursing and other health professions that provide more than 2.6 million patient visits each year. It is a primary driver of San Antonio’s $44.1 billion health care and biosciences sector. UT Health San Antonio plans to add more than 1,500 higher-wage jobs over the next five years to serve San Antonio, Bexar County and South Texas.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

1.2 Background and Special Circumstances

The Office of Institutional Advancement at UT Health San Antonio seeks proposals from consulting firms with expertise in strategy and execution of a Grateful Patient program. The selected consultant will help develop and implement a multi-channel strategy targeting diverse donor demographics, using effective appeal design, preparation, and analysis. This project includes enhancing UT Health San Antonio's online presence and leveraging social media to build pipeline and maximize donor engagement and support.

With the new Multispecialty and Research Hospital and our existing network of more than 20 clinics, UT Health San Antonio is positioned to expand outreach efforts to patients as part of an integrated annual giving strategy. The consultant will play a key role in crafting a communication plan that fosters a culture of philanthropy, encourages stakeholder engagement, and highlights patient stories to inspire. The scope of work should focus on data to support the annual giving approach to grateful patient fundraising and include ‘Honor Your Caregiver’ program logistics to complement the work of the gift officers working directly with physician champions. A pilot phase including physician engagement, staff training and daily wealth screenings is currently in progress.

1.3 Objective of Request for Proposal

The University is soliciting proposals in response to this Request for Proposal RFP 745-25-P07, from qualified proposers to provide operational guidance services (the “Services”) for Fundraising Consultant Services are more defined in Section 5 (Scope of Work) of this RFP.

1.4 Group Purchase Authority

Texas law authorizes institutions of higher education (defined by §61.003, Education Code) to use the group purchasing procurement method (ref. §§51.9335, 73.115, and 74.008, Education Code).

Additional Texas institutions of higher education may therefore elect to enter into a contract with the successful Proposer under this RFP. In particular, Proposer should note that University is part of The University of Texas System (UT System), which is comprised of fourteen institutions described at http://www.utsystem.edu/institutions. UT System institutions routinely evaluate whether a contract resulting from a procurement conducted by one of the institutions might be suitable for use by another, and if so, this RFP could give rise to additional purchase volumes. As a result, in submitting its proposal, Proposer should consider proposing a pricing model and other commercial terms that take into account the higher volumes and other expanded opportunities that could result from the eventual inclusion of other institutions in the purchase contemplated by this RFP. Any purchases made by other institutions based on this RFP will be the sole responsibility of those institutions.

1.6 Public Information

All information, documentation, and other materials submitted in response to this solicitation are considered non-confidential and/or non-proprietary and are subject to public disclosure under the Texas Public Information Act (Texas Government Code, Chapter 552.001, et seq.) after the solicitation is completed.
