This document is a Scope of Work (SOW) for the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and relates to special education service delivery and support. The project involves the provision of comprehensive special education services, including evaluations, individualized education program (IEP) development and implementation, related services such as speech-language pathology and occupational therapy, and behavioral support services for eligible students with disabilities across participating school districts. The SOW specifies service delivery models, staffing requirements, documentation standards, and compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. While specific quantities and dates are not clearly delineated in standard procurement format, the contract is intended to establish framework agreements for continuous service provision throughout the school year with potential for multi-year terms.

Pricing structures are to be negotiated based on service categories and utilization models, with costs potentially varying by district size and service intensity. The contract may include set-asides for historically underutilized businesses (HUBs) in accordance with Texas procurement requirements. The document emphasizes compliance with state and federal regulations governing special education, including documentation, confidentiality, and quality assurance standards. Funding sources are anticipated through state general revenue and federal IDEA grants administered through participating school districts. The SOW establishes performance metrics, reporting requirements, and accountability measures to ensure service quality and student outcome achievement across all participating entities.
