"Pricing only" DHS RFP Maternal Child Health Training

This state and local contracting opportunity is a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) for Maternal Child Health (MCH) training services. The RFP seeks pricing proposals for a 3-year initial term with a 2-year renewal option. The services include classroom training, online training, WIC help desk, distance learning webcasts, and an annual WIC conference. Offerors must submit pricing in the specified format, and all pricing is firm. DHS will approve and reimburse the actual costs for training and conference-related supplies, equipment, and services. The RFP outlines details on discounts for prompt payment, tax exemptions, and the formula for determining renewal pricing. Offerors must provide their total pricing for the initial 3-year term and the 2-year renewal option based on the rates and quantities specified in the RFP.

This is a "pricing only" RFP, which means that offerors must submit their pricing proposal under a separate bid number (B-21512) from the technical proposal, which must be submitted under a different bid number (21521). No paper responses will be accepted, and all submissions must be made electronically through the BidBuy system by the May 20, 2021 due date. The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor or current contractor is not identified, and the budget range for the procurement is not provided.
