Online Parenting Tool - Court Vendor Resource List

The Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles has issued Request for Proposals (RFP) #2025-129 for an Online Parenting Tool to be included in the Court Vendor Resource List Project. The procurement seeks a comprehensive online communication platform designed to assist parents in high-conflict situations, particularly those involving domestic violence, to manage shared parenting responsibilities. The tool must facilitate peaceful communication, document child-related information, and help reduce interpersonal conflicts between parents. Vendors must submit electronic proposals through the Court's Online Procurement Website (Bonfire) by November 11, 2025, with proposal evaluations scheduled from November 10-18, 2025, and a Notice of Intent to Award anticipated on December 1, 2025. Evaluation criteria will include 25% for experience on similar assignments, 10% for personnel credentials, 32% for work plan quality, 30% for cost, and 3% for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) status. Minimum vendor requirements include five years of documented experience in similar services and appropriate insurance coverages.

The solicitation includes specific provisions for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation, with vendors potentially receiving a 3% point increase for meeting DVBE requirements. The contract duration is three years, with the option of two additional one-year renewals, and pricing will remain valid for 120 days. Vendors must submit a pricing schedule for clients, with services to be paid directly by the clients, not the Court, and are expected to describe potential pricing adjustments for lower-income clients, particularly those with court fee waivers. The Court reserves the right to award multiple contracts and is not obligated to procure a minimum amount of work. Pricing should be all-inclusive, with new products only (used or refurbished items will not be accepted), and alternate brands will not be considered. The procurement covers the Court's extensive jurisdiction, serving 88 cities and 118 law enforcement agencies across Los Angeles County, with nearly 600 courtrooms and 550 bench officers. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project and the Court's size suggest a significant potential contract value.
