About this file

This is a training document and attachment for an addendum to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHS) for solicitation HHS0016750, Specialized Residential Health Services. The document provides guidance on Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Subcontracting Plan (HSP) requirements and training materials for prospective respondents. The HSP training was conducted on Friday, January 16, 2026, at 1:00 pm Central Time. Key deadlines include January 20, 2026, at 10:30 am Central Time for submitting questions per RFQ Sections 3.3.4 and 3.1; January 30, 2026, at 5:00 pm Central Time for HSP courtesy review submissions per RFQ Sections 6.8 and 3.1; and February 12, 2026, at 10:30 am Central Time for final response submission per RFQ Section 3.1. The primary points of contact are Rene R. Perez, Sole Point of Contact, and Cheryl Bradley, HUB Coordinator, both at the Texas HHS.

The training document outlines five HSP method options for subcontracting: Method I (utilizing only certified Texas HUBs), Method II (mentor-protege relationships with approved agreements), Method III (meeting or exceeding HUB goals through HUB subcontracting), Method IV (solicitation method with written outreach to three or more HUBs and two minority or trade organizations), and Method V (self-performing with the prime contractor completing all work using own resources and employees). All responses must include a completed HSP or face rejection per Texas Government Code 2161.252(b) and 34 TAC 20.285. Respondents must provide required HSP pages including Section 1 (respondent and bid information), Section 2 (subcontracting intentions), and Section 4 (affirmation signatures), along with HUB vendor profiles from the CMBL/HUB Directory and appropriate documentation for their selected method. No HSP changes are permitted after contract award.
