The State of Oregon, through the Alcohol and Drug Policy Commission, is seeking a contractor to conduct a comprehensive inventory, assessment, financial analysis, and report on the state's primary prevention system under Request for Proposal (RFP) 6166-0. The project, mandated by House Bill 3321, requires the selected contractor to perform a detailed examination of existing primary prevention programs focused on preventing, delaying, and reducing youth substance use across Oregon. Key deliverables include a comprehensive inventory of school-based and youth-serving agency prevention programs, a financial accounting of current prevention expenses, and a comprehensive report to be submitted to legislative committees by September 15, 2026. Proposers must demonstrate expertise through key personnel qualifications, including team members with experience in public finance, primary prevention efforts, needs assessment, systems analysis, and evidence-based prevention services. The RFP will be evaluated on a 100-point scale, with an additional 15 points for pricing, focusing on the proposer's understanding of prevention, data collection strategies, and experience working with state agencies and community partners. The solicitation was posted on October 1, 2025, with proposals due on October 31, 2025, at 3:00 PM PST, and the initial contract term set to end on September 1, 2026.

The RFP includes a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan that encourages participation of minority-owned, woman-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, and emerging small businesses certified under ORS 200.055. Proposers are required to outline potential subcontracting opportunities for certified disadvantaged businesses and demonstrate their commitment to inclusive contracting practices. The contract has an initial maximum not-to-exceed compensation of $500,000, with potential for increases if additional funding becomes available. Payment will be structured with an initial 10% disbursement upon contract execution and subsequent equal quarterly payments contingent on approved invoices and required reporting. No federal funds are indicated for this contract, and the contractor will collaborate closely with the ADPC Prevention Committee to align the inquiry, analysis, and recommendations with the ADPC Comprehensive Plan. The contractor will be expected to work with multiple state agencies, including the Oregon Health Authority and Department of Education, to provide a comprehensive analysis of the primary prevention system. Proposers must also complete a Responsibility Inquiry form, demonstrating their financial stability, legal compliance, and overall capability to meet the contract requirements.
