About this opportunity

Seminole County, Florida is seeking a Water Safety Consultant through Request for Proposal RFP-604684-23/MHH to implement a comprehensive drowning prevention initiative. The project requires a consultant to deliver two primary services: professional training for first responders and survival swim lessons for children. The county aims to educate at least 200 public safety professionals and provide no-cost survival swim lessons to a minimum of 75 children ages six months to ten years in low-moderate income communities. Proposal evaluation will be based on four key criteria: respondent qualifications and capacity (20 points), project approach (30 points), project understanding (30 points), and pricing proposal (20 points). The RFP was released on November 29, 2023, with questions due by December 26, 2023, and proposal submissions required by January 3, 2024, at 2:00 pm. Respondents must demonstrate expertise in swim instruction, particularly for youth with developmental disabilities, and provide a comprehensive community outreach and service delivery plan.

The contract is funded through a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) grant, with a total budget of $115,000 ($40,000 for professional training and $75,000 for survival swim lessons). The initiative specifically targets populations at or below 80% of the area median income, with a focus on serving low-income communities. Contractors must utilize Pool Safely resources and align with the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act. The contract will run through September 12, 2025, with the first three months considered probationary, during which Seminole County may terminate the agreement. The selected consultant will be required to submit monthly reports detailing activities and expenditures, and will be reimbursed on a cost-reimbursement basis. Additional compliance requirements include adhering to FEMA contract guidelines, which mandate specific reporting, record-keeping, and procurement standards, with potential requirements for performance and payment bonds.
