This is a Budget Template file for RFP No. 2026-RFP-00370, issued by the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office for Jail Programs and Services at two correctional facilities in Redwood City, California. The template is designed to capture pricing for multiple program categories including Education and Literacy, Vocational Training, Cognitive Behavioral Interventions, Chaplaincy, and Other Jail Services across a three-year contract period. Proposers must structure their pricing by specifying unit types (course, cycle, single class, or hour), cost per unit, and quantity for each program offering in Year One, Year Two, and Year Three. The RFP includes a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting on March 9, 2026, a deadline for questions and contract exceptions on March 16, 2026, and a proposal submission deadline of 5:00 p.m. on March 23, 2026. Interviews are tentatively scheduled for March 30, 2026, with an anticipated contract award date of July 1, 2026. The resulting agreement shall have an initial term of one year with one optional extension period not to exceed two years, exercisable at the County's sole discretion.

The budget template accommodates pricing for direct program delivery costs, materials and supplies such as program books and workbooks, program coordination on a flat-fee basis, and project operating costs. Vendors may propose services for multiple program categories or specialized jail services as applicable to their offerings. No specific budget ceiling or total funding amount is specified in the RFP; pricing is vendor-proposed and will be evaluated as part of the twenty-five-point price evaluation criterion. The County has prepared two standard contract templates—one for agreements exceeding $200,000 and another for agreements under $200,000—indicating that contract values may fall within either threshold. All selected contractors must maintain $1,000,000 in general liability insurance, motor vehicle liability insurance, and professional liability insurance, with the County named as additional insured.
