Bailey Education Group, LLC

Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) has issued a Notice of Intent to Purchase Single/Sole Source Commodities and Services for educational tutoring and coaching services from Bailey Education Group, LLC. The procurement (25649-SSD-EST) seeks direct student tutorial services to be delivered at 20 identified schools, with a minimum of 25-26 tutorial sessions conducted twice weekly. Specific service requirements include analyzing student data, identifying learning gaps, providing focused remediation, delivering pre- and post-assessment tools, conducting small-group direct instruction, and designing standards-aligned learning opportunities. The services encompass both onsite, job-embedded training and virtual coaching, including modeling, co-teaching, consultation, and technical assistance for special and general education teachers. The posting period for this single/sole source notice runs from December 5, 2025, to December 16, 2025, with a seven-business-day window for potential vendors to respond via www.vendorlink.com using Exhibit B. Interested firms must provide clear and convincing documentation demonstrating their ability to meet or exceed the stated requirements with equivalent commodities and services.

The procurement appears to be a sole-source opportunity with no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Bailey Education Group emphasizes that all services, professional development, coaching, curriculum resources, and materials are proprietary intellectual property developed through years of research and proven methodologies. The contract will be subject to School Board approval, with multiple-year sole source agreements valid for one year after approval and requiring reposting and validation before renewal periods. Vendors must submit responses through the specified online portal, with HCPS reserving the discretion to proceed with the award to Bailey Education Group without conducting a competitive solicitation if no qualifying competing vendors respond during the posting period. The determination will be made by the General Manager of Procurement Services and the Procurement Officer. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the services suggests a significant educational support contract focused on improving teaching effectiveness, leadership capacity, and student achievement.
