About this opportunity

The Ohio Department of Health Bureau of Maternal, Child, and Family Health is requesting proposals for recruitment, training, and support services for farmers and farmers' markets participating in the electronic Ohio WIC Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP), with proposals due September 23, 2026.

The WIC FMNP, operating since 1992, is modernizing from paper vouchers to electronic benefits (e-benefits) to increase participation and redemption of benefits among WIC participants purchasing fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables. This transition aligns with Ohio's Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program, which moved to e-benefits in 2024 using the Homegrown online application. The selected contractor will be responsible for recruiting farmers and farmers' markets to the e-benefits system, developing and delivering training curricula, and providing ongoing technical support to ensure successful program implementation.

The scope includes stakeholder engagement and recruitment strategies, digital platform training delivery, implementation support activities, and performance metrics to track program success. The contractor must comply with mandatory data security protocols and privacy safeguards protecting sensitive WIC participant information, as outlined in the Data Security and Privacy Terms document; breach notification procedures and audit requirements are binding contract obligations.

Vendors must complete an Affirmation and Disclosure Form and a cost sheet as part of the proposal submission. The RFP is issued under contract identifier BMCFH-SFY27-WIC FMNP eSolution Training & Support and is funded through the ODH's FY-27 WIC program budget. The procurement includes General Terms and Conditions establishing contractual framework, payment structures, performance requirements, and compliance obligations governing the contract term.
