Interview Preparation Skills RFR

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, through the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind (MCB), is issuing a Request for Response (RFR) for interview preparation skills services. MCB is seeking qualified vendors to provide mock interviews over the phone to prepare consumers who are seeking employment, with the goal of helping them sharpen their interview skills and gain experience. The selected vendor will be required to charge $750 per consumer and provide accessible reports within 30 days of the mock interviews, including electronic data and audio files. The contract duration is from December 2022 through June 30, 2023, with the option to renew annually up to June 30, 2027. The estimated value of the contract is $15,000 annually from federal funds. Bidders must demonstrate their qualifications, staffing, and approach to conducting the mock interviews and providing the required reports. Responses must be submitted through the COMMBUYS procurement platform by November 23, 2022.

The RFR does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The documents do not provide information about any incumbent vendors or current contractors. Additionally, the RFR does not mention any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The available budget for this opportunity is $15,000 annually from federal funds.
