About this opportunity
The Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF), Office of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (SAMH), is seeking a Managing Entity to plan, coordinate, and contract for the delivery of substance abuse and mental health services in the SunCoast Region, which encompasses eleven counties: Charlotte, Collier, DeSoto, Glades, Hendry, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas, and Sarasota. The procurement is an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) under section 394.9082, Florida Statutes, aimed at selecting a not-for-profit, community-based organization to develop a comprehensive behavioral health system of care through subcontracted network service providers. Key deliverables include expanding provider networks, increasing access to acute care services, reducing emergency department utilization for uninsured individuals in behavioral health crisis, and implementing a robust system of care with performance-driven metrics. The evaluation criteria will cover nine areas, including executive overview, core team qualifications, service approach, monitoring capabilities, data collection processes, fiscal responsibility, and emergency preparedness. Critical procurement dates include written questions due by March 27, 2024, replies due by April 24, 2024, anticipated contract award posting on August 12, 2024, and an anticipated contract effective date of September 1, 2024.
The solicitation is open to organizations that can demonstrate competence in managing behavioral health services, with a preference for vendors holding accreditation from the Council on Accreditation or the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. Organizations may submit replies that differ from the defined regional grouping, but must provide justification for why subdividing or expanding the region serves the state's best interest. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the procurement emphasizes the importance of creating a comprehensive and accessible behavioral health system. Funding will be derived from a combination of state funds, Federal Block Grants, and Federal Discretionary Project Grants, subject to annual legislative appropriations. Although specific award values are not detailed, the contract will be funded through recurring and non-recurring funds, with the Managing Entity expected to identify and develop additional resources such as third-party payments, grants, local matching funds, and in-kind services. The contract is anticipated to have an initial five-year term with potential renewal options, ensuring continuity of critical behavioral health services across the SunCoast Region.
