About this file
This document is an amendment schedule issued by the Tennessee Department of Children's Services (DCS) regarding Request for Proposals #35910-12703 for Statewide Home Study Services. The RFP, initially issued on October 13, 2025, seeks six separate regional contracts to provide comprehensive home study services across Tennessee's geographic regions: East, Mid-State, Mid-West, Northeast, Tennessee Valley, and West. Services include evaluations for traditional foster parent applicants, Interstate Compact on Placement of Children (ICPC) referrals, and court-ordered home assessments. Amendment #2, dated November 26, 2025, and Amendment #3, dated December 8, 2025, update the RFP schedule with revised dates and times. Key milestones under Amendment #3 include a written questions and comments deadline of October 23, 2025, state responses to questions on December 10, 2025, response deadline of December 17, 2025, technical evaluation completion by January 9, 2026, cost proposal opening and scoring on January 13, 2026, negotiation scheduled for January 15-16, 2026, notice of intent to award on January 20, 2026, open file period ending January 27, 2026, contract transmission to contractors on January 28, 2026, and contractor signature deadline of January 29, 2026.
The compensation structure is established on a per-completed-study basis at $225 per study, with proposers required to submit separate rates for traditional home studies, ICPC studies, and orders of reference for each of the six regions. Proposers must demonstrate the capability to complete 60% of traditional home studies within 60 days and 80% of all home studies within 89 days. The initial contract term commences from the effective date and includes options for up to four 12-month renewals, not to exceed a total contract period of 60 months. The state has committed to providing procurement opportunities to diverse business enterprises, including those owned by minorities, women, service-disabled veterans, persons with disabilities, and small business enterprises. Responsive and responsible bidders will be considered, with awards made to vendors offering the best combination of attributes using a 100-point scoring system allocating 25 points to general qualifications and experience, 45 points to technical qualifications and approach, and 30 points to cost considerations.
