- Description
- Cross-Site Evaluation of Children’s Bureau’s Child Welfare Technical Assistance Implementation Centers and National Child Welfare Resource Centers The Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), Children’s Bureau, through the Program Support Center, Division of Acquisition Management, Department of Health and Human Services is interested in procuring the services of a Contractor to develop and implement a cross-site evaluation of two groups of discretionary grantees, the Child Welfare Technical Assistance Implementation Centers (Implementation Centers) and the National Child Welfare Resource Centers (NCWRCs), including the Collaboration to AdoptUsKids. These grantees are members of Children Bureau’s larger Child Welfare Training and Technical Assistance Network. The cross-site evaluation will employ a participatory and utilization-focused approach, will build on the work and evaluation findings of the existing T/TA Network and other evaluation contracts, and will include qualitative and quantitative methods. The Contractor shall address some evaluation questions that examine the role of all T/TA Network members in the performance of the larger network, but the majority of the cross-site will focus on the performance and effectiveness of the Implementation Centers and the NCWRCs. By October of 2008, CB anticipates that the T/TA Network will consist of approximately 25 members. The NCWRCs, the Collaboration to AdoptUsKids(AdoptUsKids), and the Child Welfare Technical Assistance Implementation Centers (Implementation Centers) will account for 13 of these members. The evaluation of the T/TA Network will require the management and administration of multi-phase programmatic technical assistance, data collection, analysis efforts, and written reports. This proposed procurement is to be solicited under full and open competition. It is anticipated that a Cost Plus Fixed-Fee Contract will be awarded for a base period of five years, and two twelve-month option years (totaling seven years if all options are exercised). The contract will be incrementally funded over the contract period of performance consistent with the Contractor’s responsibilities. Solicitation 08Y014443 will be issued on or about July 2, 2008, with a tentative closing date of August 1, 2008.
