Highschool testing voucher RFP

The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity has issued RFP 260000002110 for HiSET and GED test vouchers, with proposals due June 30, 2026 (now closed). The Department recommended award to GED Testing Services LLC for $726,000 and PSI Services LLC for $24,000 pending State Administrative Board approval, following a pass-fail evaluation with lowest-price award to responsive and responsible bidders.

The contract term is three years with up to two one-year renewal options. The Joint Evaluation Committee, chaired by Solicitation Manager Jennifer Frank and including representatives from the State Division of Workforce Development, applied mandatory pass-fail evaluation criteria. Three bidders submitted proposals: GED Testing Services LLC, ExamRoom.AI Corp., and PSI Services LLC. GED Testing Services and PSI Services both passed all mandatory evaluation specifications; ExamRoom.AI Corp. failed due to not providing the required Vendor Question Worksheet and was deemed non-responsive.

GED Testing Services LLC pricing: $47.50 per voucher (effective after July 2027) with a $10 retake fee. PSI Services LLC pricing: $18.00 per subtest with two free retakes included, $8.00 test-center fee or $23.00 live online proctoring fee, $30 one-time annual state administrative fee, and $0.50 per voucher processing fee. Neither bidder qualified as a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Business or Geographically Disadvantaged Business Enterprise.
