RFP 24-45 Ethics Hotline Monitoring Service (Annual Contract)

This state and local contracting opportunity involves a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (the "District") in Georgia for an annual contract to provide ethics hotline monitoring services. The selected contractor will be responsible for monitoring the District's ethics hotline and reporting all communications to designated District staff members. The required scope of services includes establishing a process to receive, review, and respond to ethics hotline communications in a timely manner. The RFP outlines the evaluation criteria, which will likely include the vendor's experience, proposed solution, and pricing. Proposals are due on March 28, 2024, and the contract term is for one year, with the District having the option to extend for up to four additional one-year periods.

The RFP does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The current incumbent contractor is Ethical Advocate, with an annual contract value of $5,800. The District does not have a specific budget for this service but is open to considering alternative pricing structures and scope of service provisions as an exhibit to the District's standard form contract. The District would like to leverage the vendor's proposed questionnaire and does not currently own the hotline telephone number.
