About this opportunity

Solano County Health and Social Services, Public Health Division, has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ #948-0901-26) seeking community-based organizations, non-profits, government agencies, and other qualified providers to support public health prevention activities. The RFQ aims to establish a vendor pool for two primary objectives: reducing the spread of communicable diseases and sexually transmitted diseases (with specific focus on Hepatitis C Virus) and reducing substance use rates among youth and high-risk communities. Proposers must demonstrate at least one consecutive year of prevention-focused services experience within the past five years. The evaluation will be conducted by a County Evaluation Committee, scoring proposals based on qualifications, experience, program approach, key personnel, budget, and implementation plan. The RFQ was released on August 29, 2025, with proposals due on October 13, 2025, at 5:00 pm, and an anticipated contract start date of January 1, 2026.

The solicitation is specifically targeted at community-based organizations (CBOs) defined as private nonprofit corporations operating at the local level, including entities under fiscal sponsorship of an IRS 501(c)(3) entity. While no specific set-aside designations were mentioned, the county reserves the right to retain a pool of vendors and issue contracts as project needs arise. Funding for the contracts is estimated at up to $400,000 annually for communicable disease services and up to $500,000 annually for substance use prevention services, contingent on receiving California General Fund, Substance Use Block Grant, Opioid Settlement, and other state, federal, or local funding sources. The initial contract will be for one year, with options to renew for up to four additional 12-month terms, potentially creating a total contract period of five years. Solano County retains the right to modify the scope, reject proposals, and adjust funding based on budget constraints and changing priorities.

Opportunity text

The purpose of this Request for Qualifications for Public Health Services is to establish a list of qualified community-based organizations (CBOs), individuals, other government agencies, non-profits, stakeholders, faith-based organizations, and other qualified providers with interest and experience in the prevention of communicable diseases and substance use.

Solano County Health and Social Services, Public Health Division, hereinafter referred to as the County or H & SS, seeks vendors with a public interest in one or both of the following:

  1. Reducing the spread and impact of communicable diseases and sexually transmitted diseases (CD/STD), including Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), within Solano County.
  1. Reducing rates of use of alcohol, cannabis, tobacco, fentanyl, and other controlled substances among youth and other communities with high rates of substance use and related health outcomes.

Solano County reserves the right to retain a "pool" of vendors on contract. Each vendor in the pool shall be determined through this RFQ process. As project needs arise or are identified by Solano County, vendors in the pool will be contacted and asked to provide services for each engagement. The County reserves the right to issue other solicitations for similar services during the term of the agreement.

Note: A community-based organization (CBO) is defined as a "private entity that is a nonprofit corporation [Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)] operating at the local level." Entities that are under the fiscal sponsorship of an IRS 501(c)(3) entity are also determined to be a CBO within this definition.
