Tutor and Independent Instruction Services and Other Related Services

Henrico County Public Schools (HCPS) is leading a comprehensive procurement for Tutor and Independent Instruction Services on behalf of itself, the GOVMVMT Government Purchasing Cooperative, and multiple public agencies nationwide, including numerous jurisdictions in Washington state. The Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 25-2835-4JOK seeks qualified suppliers to provide in-person and virtual tutoring services, independent instruction, and academic support for elementary, middle, and high school students, with specific emphasis on supporting exceptional education students. The solicitation covers a wide range of academic subjects and service tiers, targeting comprehensive educational intervention across various learning environments. Key submission details include a proposal deadline of June 5, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., with a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference scheduled for May 21, 2025, via Microsoft Teams. The proposed contract period is five years, with potential extensions allowing for a total contract duration of up to 10 years. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on vendor qualifications, pricing structure, educational personnel recruitment and screening processes, and ability to provide flexible, high-quality academic support tailored to participating agencies' specific needs.

The procurement appears to have no explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though the broad scope suggests opportunities for diverse vendors. The estimated annual contract volume is $100,000,000, with multiple awards anticipated to ensure comprehensive coverage for participating public agencies. Pricing will be structured around hourly rates for in-person and virtual tutoring, independent instruction, and educational interventionist services, with potential additional fees for bilingual/multilingual support. The contract aims to address national teacher shortages by providing a robust mechanism for recruiting, screening, and supporting qualified educational personnel. Participating agencies will have flexibility to utilize the contract for targeted intervention, after-school, weekend, and summer academic programs, with services designed to align with district standards and individual student requirements. The broad geographic coverage, including multiple Washington state counties and cities, indicates a significant opportunity for vendors capable of delivering scalable, high-quality educational support services across diverse educational environments.
