Specifications include, but are not limited to: In 2014, an RFP was completed that resulted in the identification of three vendors that met the technical requirements of the State, two of which entered into no-cost contracts. These vendor contracts expire in July 2019. In addition, since 2014 vendors have revised and changed their current tools, additional tools have been developed in the marketplace, and there have been advances in research on universal screening and progress monitoring. For these reasons, the State is issuing this RFP that will identify multiple universal screening and progress monitoring tools for districts to select from with the knowledge that the tools identified through this RFP meet the criteria specified by the State. This RFP was reviewed by a representative of the National Center for Intensive Intervention (NCII) and RFP Attachment 6.2, Section C is aligned with the NCII requirements. Districts will be encouraged, but not required, to procure universal screeners and progress monitoring tools from the vendors identified through this process. Vendors may submit a proposal for either a universal screener or a progress monitoring tool or both.
