RFI - Residential Reentry Center (RRC) Services and Home Confinement (HC) Services Expansion at Eastern Sector 3 Locations

The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons is seeking market research input through a Request for Information regarding the expansion of Residential Reentry Center (RRC) services and Home Confinement (HC) services across three Eastern Sector locations: Martinsburg, West Virginia; Williamsport, Pennsylvania; and Richmond, Virginia. The procurement focuses on community-based correctional services for federal offenders and individuals under U.S. Probation supervision, including employment assistance, housing development, and self-improvement programming to facilitate transition from incarceration to community reintegration. Respondents must submit capability statements, completed RFI questionnaires addressing service delivery feasibility, local regulations, zoning, transportation, employment opportunities, and area support, along with company information including Tax ID and socio-economic status. The evaluation will assess contractors' ability to meet strict operational requirements including 24/7 facility operations, comprehensive staffing with appropriate credentials and training, compliance with federal and state regulations, resident case management, employment placement verification, drug and alcohol surveillance, and electronic monitoring for home confinement services. Critical deadlines include a question submission deadline of February 20, 2026, with answers posted by February 27, 2026, and RFI responses due by March 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM ET via email to tjankowiak@bop.gov.

This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation. The anticipated contract will consist of separate Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Firm Fixed Unit Price contracts for each location with guaranteed minimum and estimated maximum placements: Martinsburg requires capacity for 40 in-house residents (32 male/8 female) and 20 home confinement residents within a 100-mile radius; Williamsport requires 20 in-house residents (16 male/4 female) and 15 home confinement residents within city limits; and Richmond requires 40 in-house residents (35 male/5 female) and 20 home confinement residents within a 100-mile radius. No incumbent contractor information or specific budget ranges are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this RFI represents market research to inform the future solicitation. The government has clarified that geographic service area requirements for Williamsport are limited to city limits rather than a broader surrounding area. Response costs are the responsibility of prospective contractors, and all submitted information becomes government property subject to potential Freedom of Information Act disclosure unless marked as proprietary.
