About this opportunity
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is seeking qualified providers to deliver Mothers and Infants Together (MINT) services within 14 states spanning the Midwestern and Southeastern United States, including North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee. This Request for Information (RFI) aims to identify contractors capable of providing in-house Residential Reentry Center (RRC) beds for female federal offenders participating in the MINT program. The program allows pregnant offenders to transfer two months before their expected delivery date and remain an additional three months after delivery to bond with their child. Potential contractors must demonstrate the ability to provide a secure, home-like environment with comprehensive support services including counseling, educational programs, meals, and transportation. Key dates for this RFI include a deadline for questions on December 13, 2024, and a response deadline of December 31, 2024 at 2:00 PM EDT.
The procurement is not set aside for any specific business category, and the BOP anticipates issuing an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a guaranteed minimum and estimated maximum number of placements. The contract will require providers to accommodate approximately 6 in-house MINT placements, with the ability to accept various types of federal offenders, including sex offenders. Contractors must provide documentation proving their right to use a suitable facility, which can include deeds, leases, or options to lease, but personal residences are explicitly prohibited. While specific award values are not disclosed, the contract will cover comprehensive services including facility management, resident care, and coordinating with medical providers and community resources. The MINT program represents a specialized approach to supporting incarcerated mothers, focusing on facilitating early bonding and providing structured support during a critical transition period.
