The Texas Education Agency (TEA) is soliciting proposals for a special education services contract to provide comprehensive support for students with disabilities across multiple school districts in Texas. The procurement encompasses assessment and evaluation services, individualized education program (IEP) development and implementation, instructional support, identification and referral procedures, and ongoing progress monitoring. All services must comply with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and applicable federal and state special education regulations. Key deliverables include comprehensive evaluations of students with suspected disabilities, development of compliant IEPs tailored to individual student needs, and continuous monitoring of student progress toward IEP goals. Qualified respondents should demonstrate established experience in special education service delivery, possess knowledge of special education compliance requirements, and have capacity to serve students with various disability categories. The proposal due date is April 21, 2026, with the posting date of April 7, 2026, providing a two-week response window. The contract is expected to involve multi-year implementation with annual review cycles consistent with federal special education requirements.

While the specific set-aside designations and restrictions on respondent eligibility are not explicitly detailed in the available documentation, the contract nature suggests that incumbent providers with demonstrated capacity in serving students with disabilities may receive priority consideration. Entities with established relationships and proven compliance records with Texas school districts would likely be advantaged in the evaluation process. The contract will be funded through IDEA allocations to Texas school districts, though specific funding amounts and award values are not provided in the available documentation. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the posted materials. Given the special education compliance focus, respondents should be prepared to demonstrate integration capabilities with existing IEP management systems and school district infrastructure currently in place across multiple educational settings in Texas.
