GOHS Program Research and Evaluation Services

The Georgia Driver’s Education Commission (GDEC) seeks qualified researchers, consultants, or research organizations to conduct a comprehensive follow‑up evaluation of the State’s Driver Education program. The effort will involve designing a research plan, justifying cohort selections, specifying data requirements from multiple state agencies, performing analytical work, and delivering a final report with findings by March 2027. The contract will be awarded to a single vendor for a roughly six‑month period, with a preliminary findings presentation in December 2026. The State requires compliance with Georgia procurement rules, insurance, tax, and E‑Verify certifications, and mandates that all final data and deliverables become the property of GDEC. • Scope includes research design, data acquisition from GDEC, DDS, and GDOT, statistical analysis, and final reporting. • Contractor must provide detailed personnel resumes, sample reports, and two prior work examples, and must meet Georgia‑resident and diversity preferences if applicable. • Delivery milestones: preliminary findings by December 2026, final deliverables (including datasets) by March 2027; data must be destroyed within two months after acceptance.
