Description
The Shelby County Aging Commission is seeking vendors to provide Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) for aging residents. This Q&A addendum clarifies licensing requirements and the evaluation points for proposals that fill service gaps, especially when a vendor is the sole provider addressing a missing service. Vendors must hold any state‑required licenses for the specific services and, if operating within Shelby County, obtain a Shelby County Business License. The solicitation’s closing date is 31 March 2026.
• Service focus: delivery of home‑based and community‑based care for seniors in Shelby County.
• Evaluation emphasis: points awarded for proposals that fill an existing service gap (#9) and extra points if the proposal is the only one addressing that gap (#10).
• Licensing: out‑of‑state providers must determine applicable state licenses themselves; Tennessee does not require a statewide business license, but a Shelby County Business License is required for businesses located in the county.
• Contact: Sonja Worthy, Buyer, Purchasing Department, Shelby County Government.
