Pricing Clarification.pdf

This pricing clarification document pertains to the City of Philadelphia Police Department's Request for Proposals for pre-employment psychological evaluation services. The City has established fixed pricing for all requested services, and successful contractors must accept and agree to the City's stated pricing structure in their proposal responses. The evaluation services include administration of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-3 (MMPI-3), a 75-minute face-to-face clinical interview, and submission of a written report compliant with Municipal Police Officers' Education & Training Commission requirements. Proposals are due October 8, 2026, at 5:00 PM Philadelphia Time, with a pre-proposal meeting scheduled for September 28, 2026, at 10:00 AM. The initial contract term runs from October 19, 2026, through October 18, 2027, with the City holding the option to extend for up to four additional one-year terms. Multiple awards are anticipated, and work is performed at the Recruitment/Background Investigations Unit located at 400 North Broad Street, 4th Floor, Suite 117, Monday through Saturday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, or at an alternate location agreed upon by both parties.

The fixed compensation structure is set at $350 per psychological evaluation (75 minutes), $150 per hour for consultation services or training sessions, and $175 per evaluation for review panel participation on split decisions. Each successful contractor receives the same not-to-exceed amount per year based on the number of expected applicants. No mandatory Small Business Enterprise (SBE) or Local Business Entity (LBE) set-asides have been established; however, respondents must exercise best and good faith efforts to include SBEs, LBEs, or S/LBEs in their proposals. A Local Business Entity certification is available as a favorable evaluation factor for applicants meeting specified residency, employment, or gross-receipts thresholds. Applicants must comply with HIPAA requirements, Philadelphia tax clearance, political contribution disclosure, and 21st Century Minimum Wage and Benefits Standards. Questions are due October 1, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with answers posted October 5, 2026. No alternate prices will be accepted.
