Peer Support Services for DSPD Clients and their Families

The Utah Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is conducting a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) for Peer Support Services targeting clients of the Department of Services for People with Disabilities (DSPD) and their families. The procurement seeks providers of mental health, behavioral health, and community/social services, with a contract period spanning from 12/16/2022 to 6/30/2028. Interested vendors must submit their qualifications by email to Lisa Hewitt James, with the initial response deadline set for 1:00 PM MST on 12/16/2022. The solicitation covers commodity codes 85122, 93140, and 93141, which are associated with human services and support programs. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the available documentation, the RFSQ appears to be focused on identifying qualified service providers capable of delivering comprehensive support to DSPD clients and their families. No site visits or bidder's conferences are mentioned in the procurement documents, suggesting a primarily document-based qualification review process.

The procurement documents do not provide explicit information about set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or specific restrictions on responding organizations. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available materials. Similarly, there are no clear indications of existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements. The solicitation does not specify award values, budget ranges, or funding allocations for these peer support services. The broad scope of the RFSQ suggests that multiple vendors might be selected to provide services across different geographic areas or for various client needs within the DSPD ecosystem. Potential respondents should carefully review the full RFSQ document to understand the complete range of qualifications, service expectations, and submission requirements for this state-level contract opportunity.
