About this file

This is a Questions & Answers document for RFP 20-0072 issued by Detroit Public Schools Community District (DPSCD) for Parent Workshops & Programs. The RFP seeks proposals for in-house programs and workshops related to parental involvement, with vendors encouraged to submit services that support all grade bands within the District. DPSCD intends to contract with multiple providers to offer a breadth of professional development topics and programs. Vendors may propose any delivery schedule format, including quarterly, monthly, or weekly in-school supports. The District will work with approximately sixteen private, nonpublic schools in addition to public schools, though a specific list of schools and student populations was not disclosed in this document. Vendors may propose services for single locations or District-wide implementation.

Provider qualifications are specified throughout the RFP documentation. DPSCD currently contracts with multiple existing providers for parent workshops and professional development services. Each consultation provided must have a set price with limited duration, and vendors are permitted to charge administrative costs for supervision, planning, preparation, coordination, and compliance. Pricing terms and administrative cost allowances should be detailed in Attachment A of the proposal submission.
