Description
The State of Oregon’s Department of Human Services (ODHS) is issuing a Request for Applications for Disaster Human Services Vendors. The solicitation establishes price‑agreement contracts that ODHS may award on an as‑needed basis to provide disaster‑related human‑service support in Oregon. Applicants may elect to perform any combination of three service tracks—community‑level human services, network coordination, and full disaster case management—as well as optional flexible‑funds administration and training/capacity‑building services. No minimum funding is guaranteed; work is ordered via Service Request Orders after a price‑agreement is negotiated. The award will be a price‑agreement (not a firm‑price contract) that can initially run for one year with possible extensions up to five years (or up to seven years per the sample agreement). Vendors must meet extensive compliance requirements, including insurance, non‑discrimination, pay‑equity (if applicable), and responsibility inquiries.
• Three optional service tracks: (1) Community Human Services Support, (2) Human Services Network Coordination, (3) Disaster Case Management & Individual Assistance.
• Optional cross‑cutting capabilities: Flexible Funds administration and Training/Capacity‑Building.
• Awarded contracts are price‑agreement based, funded only as ODHS issues Service Request Orders; no guaranteed dollar amount.
• Key compliance: insurance limits, background checks, non‑discrimination, pay‑equity (if > $500 k & ≥ 50 employees), responsibility questionnaire, and COBID outreach plan.
• Initial term one year; extensions possible up to a total of five (or seven) years.
