Employer Child Care Solutions

Through this Request for Proposals (RFP), the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) seeks to procure Technical Assistance (TA) Services to Employers interested in exploring how to meet the child care needs of their employees, including a focus on Employer-Supported Site-Based Child Care. The Texas Procurement and Support Services (PHS) division will administer the procurement process, which includes solicitation publication, vendor communications, and proposal management. TWC intends to award to approximately five (5) vendors that can demonstrate financial solvency, pass the Vendor Performance Tracking System, and submit a compliant HUB subcontracting plan. Evaluation criteria include cost (40%), past performance (40%), qualifications of key personnel (10%), and the proposed work/project plan (10%). The RFP has a schedule with a deadline for submitting questions on September 13, 2024, and the deadline for vendor responses on October 18, 2024.

The RFP does not provide any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. It also does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFP also does not include any details on possible award values or budget ranges.
