About this opportunity

Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) is seeking an External Evaluator for its NSF Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) Math Advising Grant through RFP #10282025. The selected contractor will design and implement a comprehensive three-year evaluation plan spanning January 2026 to December 2028, focusing on measuring progress in math advising, placement, and student success in developmental and gateway math pathways. The evaluator will be required to conduct mixed methods research, including quarterly check-ins, surveys, interviews, focus groups, and institutional data analysis. Deliverables include annual formative reports and a final summative evaluation report. Proposals are due by 5:00 PM on November 19, 2025, and must be submitted electronically to Janine Shockley. The evaluation will be scored across three weighted criteria: Qualifications and Experience (60 points), Evaluation Approach and Technical Expertise (25 points), and COBID/Local Partnership preference (15 points). Proposers must submit a 10-page maximum proposal containing qualifications, evaluation methodology, fee structure, timeline, and three professional references.

The procurement appears to have a preference for COBID (Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity) and local partnership vendors, which may provide some advantage to qualifying businesses. MHCC reserves the right to reject any proposals and will select the evaluator providing the best overall value. The contract has a maximum annual budget of $12,000, totaling $36,000 for the full three-year period, with payments contingent upon invoice approval and deliverable completion. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the COBID preference suggests some consideration for diverse or local business participation. No incumbent vendors are mentioned in the documentation, and there are no specific requirements noted regarding existing infrastructure or technology integration. Potential proposers should carefully review the full RFP to ensure complete compliance with all requirements and to understand the comprehensive evaluation expectations of the project.
