Single Source - Adapt & Transform Behavior

The state of Florida, through the Department of Juvenile Justice, is seeking a vendor to provide a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) training course for its staff members and administrators. The training is intended to address frequent problem behaviors, staff skill deficits, and other issues occurring within the state's juvenile detention centers. The vendor must have expertise and knowledge of previous and current problems derived from research and interviews with detention center residents and staff. The contract term is one year, and the estimated dollar amount for this single source acquisition is $60,000. Prospective vendors have until May 20, 2022 to provide information regarding their ability to supply the requested services. The justification for the single source procurement is that the vendor has developed specialized training based on past experience and knowledge of the Department of Juvenile Justice's detention facilities, which would not be available from another supplier.

The request has been approved by the Assistant Secretary of Detention, Headquarters - Detention, and Headquarters - Purchasing. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The current contractor is not identified, and there is no mention of any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The contract value is listed as an estimated $60,000.
