RFQ-SO-1099-22 - Marion County Jail Surveys 2022

The Marion County Sheriff's Office is seeking written quotes from vendors to conduct a comprehensive survey and evaluation of adults in custody (AICs) at the Marion County Jail and Transition Center through RFQ-SO-1099-22. The survey will focus on critical areas including mental health issues, veteran concerns, and drug/alcohol abuse, with the primary objective of developing profiles of AICs most likely to benefit from preventive and intervention programs. Vendors must have demonstrable experience interviewing individuals with criminogenic behaviors and must pass Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS) clearance. The survey will target up to 144 AICs at the Transition Center and up to 415 AICs at the Jail, with participation being entirely voluntary. Required deliverables include reviewing previous surveys, developing a comparative analysis, modifying and implementing an approved survey instrument, attending up to 5 meetings, providing raw data and a comprehensive final report, and presenting findings to community partners. Quotes must be submitted by 5:00 PM PST on April 25, 2022, with the contract term set for one year and potential extension based on funding availability.

The procurement appears open to resident proposers within Oregon, with no specific set-aside designations explicitly mentioned in the documents. Vendors must complete Attachment A: Offeror Representations and Certifications, which requires attestation that they have not been debarred, suspended, or involved in certain criminal activities. The RFQ allows for potential incentives for AIC survey participants, provided they do not violate policy or ethics rules. While no specific budget range is detailed, the contract indicates flexibility for potentially entering into agreements with multiple vendors based on price and ability to meet county requirements. The survey must be conducted without Wi-Fi, internet connectivity, or Marion County Network interface, and proposed work must commence within 30 days of contract execution, with an estimated project completion timeline of 3-5 months. No incumbent vendor information was provided in the available documentation, and there are no explicit restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond beyond the standard representations and certifications.
