Wraparound Contract Van Buren County

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is seeking a contractor to provide Wraparound Coordination Services for Van Buren County through Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 250000002124. The procurement aims to support families with active Children's Protective Services investigations, prevention services cases, and families at risk of child abuse or neglect. The selected contractor will be responsible for creating child and family teams, developing comprehensive service plans, facilitating monthly team meetings, and maintaining detailed case records. Key performance objectives include achieving 90% program participant retention and preventing out-of-home placements, with specific targets of 90% avoiding MDHHS placement after 6 months and 85% avoiding placement after 12 months. The proposal will be evaluated using a 125-point scoring system, with contracts awarded to proposals scoring 100 points or higher. The RFP was issued on April 16, 2025, with proposals due by 3:00 p.m. Eastern on May 14, 2025, and an anticipated contract start date of October 1, 2025, for an initial three-year term with potential for two additional one-year renewals.

The contract will be funded through Child and Family Safety Stability and Permanency (CFSSP) and Strong Families Safe Children (SFSC) funding sources, with an estimated annual allocation of $125,000 and additional allocations of $20,000 for transportation and $5,000 for specific assistance. The solicitation requires approximately 20,000 service hours annually, with contractors responsible for submitting unit rates that encompass all direct and indirect costs, including mandated insurance expenses. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the Federal Provisions Addendum suggests preferences for small and minority business participation. Travel costs will be reimbursed at the lower of the state premium rate or the contractor's usual reimbursement rate, with specific mileage reimbursement guidelines for client-related transportation. The total proposed amount, including unit rates and actual cost components, must not exceed the maximum annual award of $125,000, and bidders must certify that their pricing was developed independently. The contract terms will remain firm for the entire contract length, with potential adjustments based on documented cost changes.
