M-07-23 Upward Bound Summer Residential Program

Bristol Community College in Bristol County, Massachusetts is seeking pricing proposals for its Upward Bound Summer Residential Program. The Upward Bound Program is a college preparatory program for high school students funded by the U.S. Department of Education, with the goal of generating the skills and motivation necessary for success in education beyond high school. The program will run from June 25, 2023 through August 4, 2023, and the RFP outlines detailed specifications for the residential program, including requirements for air-conditioned rooms and spaces, dining and catering services, classroom and athletic space, office space, and other amenities. Proposals are due by 2:00 PM on April 26, 2023, and the contract will be awarded by May 5, 2023. Bristol Community College will evaluate proposals based on "best value" and not necessarily the lowest price offered.

The Upward Bound Summer Residential Program does not appear to have any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The RFP does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide information on any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFP also does not specify a possible award value or budget range for the program.
