RFP 26-002-75 Senior Center and Title III D Disease Prevention and Health

Shelby County’s Aging Commission seeks a qualified vendor to operate senior‑center programs and deliver Title III‑D disease‑prevention and health‑promotion services for older adults. The contract will run for one fiscal year beginning July 1 2026, with two optional one‑year renewals, and requires compliance with extensive licensing, insurance, and reporting standards. Vendors must be a Tennessee‑chartered nonprofit or a governmental division, hold all required state licenses, maintain a current BRN/EOC number, and demonstrate at least one year of relevant experience. The award will be based on a technical score (including geographic coverage of four counties) and price, not solely on lowest bid. • Provide health‑education, screening, fitness, recreation, and telephone‑reassurance services at senior‑center facilities. • Deliver evidence‑based Title III‑D disease‑prevention programs (e.g., chronic‑disease management, smoking cessation, fall prevention). • Meet strict compliance requirements: licensing, Title VI, E‑Verify, drug‑free affidavit, insurance (minimum $1 M general liability, workers’ comp, professional liability), audited financials, and ≥ 80 % customer‑satisfaction rating. • Serve primarily Shelby County, with scoring points for capability in Fayette, Lauderdale, and Tipton counties. • Submit hard‑copy and USB‑based Excel scorecard by the April 7, 2026 deadline; proposals are firm for 90 days after receipt.
