About this file

This is Amendment 5 to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Tennessee Department of Children's Services for the Bright Futures program (RFQ #35910-14666). The amendment completely replaces the original RFQ with Release #2, which has been reissued due to rejection of all responses previously received. The solicitation seeks qualified agencies to provide statewide case management and transition support services for approximately 1,200 young adults annually (approximately 595 on any given day) ages 18-23 who have aged out of foster care or exited foster care to adoption or subsidized permanent guardianship after age 16. Services include case management, employment readiness, life skills instruction, crisis response/on-call support, and coordination with community partners to support transition to adulthood. Both prior respondents and new prospective respondents are eligible to participate in the reissued RFQ. Key dates include: Notice of Intent to Respond deadline of September 8, 2026; Written Questions & Comments deadline of September 14, 2026; Response deadline of September 28, 2026; State Notice of Intent to Award on October 6, 2026; End of Protest Period on October 13, 2026; and Contractor Signature deadline of October 16, 2026. Disability accommodation requests must be submitted by September 4, 2026.

The amendment provides no information regarding pricing terms, contract value, contract term, set-asides, incumbent contractors, funding sources, or other financial requirements. Respondents must consult the complete RFQ Release #2 and exhibit documents through Tennessee procurement channels for full scope details, technical specifications, pricing format requirements, evaluation criteria, and additional award timeline information.
