DWI program services for chaves county

Chaves County, New Mexico is seeking competitive sealed proposals for a comprehensive DWI Program Services contract through RFP-18-1, with proposals due on April 12, 2018, at 2:00 PM Mountain Standard Time. The procurement encompasses six distinct service components: DWI Related Domestic Abuse Education, DWI Screener, DWI Treatment Program, Jail-Based Treatment Programs, DWI Prevention Specialist, and Alternative Sentencing Program. Proposals will be evaluated across five key criteria: Knowledge (20 points), Experience (10 points), Qualifications (25 points), Capacity (20 points), and Cost (25 points), totaling 100 possible points. The county anticipates awarding one-year contracts for each component, with potential renewals for up to three additional one-year terms, not exceeding a total four-year contract period. Successful offerors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage of $1,000,000, maintain detailed records for six years, and be prepared for potential audits by the county, Department of Finance, and State Auditor. The RFP requires electronic submission through the Chaves County Public Portal, with specific reporting requirements including monthly documentation of program activities, youth participation, pre and post evaluations, and data for the Department of Finance and Administration database.

The procurement appears open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions. The contract is grant-funded, with a maximum funding amount inclusive of New Mexico gross receipts tax and no additional cost considerations. The county reserves the right to award contracts separately or in combination based on what is deemed most advantageous. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the procurement suggests a comprehensive funding approach for multiple DWI program service components. The contract is subject to termination if funding is discontinued, indicating potential budget variability. No incumbent vendors are identified in the available documentation. The RFP emphasizes a comprehensive approach to DWI services, focusing on education, treatment, prevention, and alternative sentencing programs across Chaves County. Potential respondents should carefully review the detailed requirements, particularly the recently issued Addendum 1, which updated reporting specifications for the DWI Prevention Specialist position.
