26-004(RV) Miscellaneous Consultant Services

The San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD) issued Request for Proposal 26-004(RV) for Miscellaneous Consultant Services on a district-wide, as-needed basis. This is a continuous, open-ended procurement with proposals accepted at any time through the Bonfire Portal, with a posted due date of March 24, 2026. SAISD seeks consultant services across multiple categories including professional development and staff training, continuous learning, mentorship and coaching, curriculum and instruction services, technology and infrastructure assessment, operations analysis, education consulting, administrative consulting, and translation and interpreting services. The contract explicitly excludes professional services in accounting, architecture, surveying, medicine, nursing, optometry, professional engineering, real estate, and certified public accounting. Evaluation criteria include pricing, vendor reputation, quality of services, ability to meet District needs, past relationships, references, and impact on small, women, and minority business enterprise (SWMBE) participation goals of 20 percent. The contract term extends from Board of Trustees approval through June 30, 2031, with intent for multiple awards. No minimum amount of work is guaranteed, and all services will be determined solely by District needs and discretion.

Responses are restricted to vendors not currently engaged with the District or with previously scheduled service dates, who must abstain from submitting proposals. The District prioritizes SWMBE participation with a stated goal of 20 percent participation in contract awards. All proposers must comply with extensive certification and compliance requirements including debarment and suspension representations, criminal history notification, conflict of interest questionnaires, HB 89 verification regarding Israel boycott prohibitions, SB 252 verification regarding foreign terrorist organization prohibitions, and EDGAR compliance certifications for federally funded work. Insurance requirements vary by contract scope but generally include comprehensive general liability coverage of $500,000 combined single limits and worker's compensation coverage. Vendors with employees having direct student contact must comply with background screening requirements. The total contract amount is listed as TBD (to be determined), pending Board approval and funding availability. The District reserves the right to negotiate separately with proposers and to accept or reject any proposals.
