- Description
- The Office of Migrant Education (OME), within the U.S. Department of Education, may provide a grant to each State Educational Agency (SEA) to administer the Migrant Education Program (MEP) in accordance with Part C of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). Under certain conditions, Section 1307 of the ESEA allows the Secretary to make arrangements with a public or private nonprofit agency to carry out the purposes of the MEP for the benefit of migrant children who reside in a State that is unable or unwilling to operate a MEP. Currently, two States (Connecticut (CT) and Rhode Island (RI)) have chosen to not operate a MEP. With the awarding of the Bypass contract, the OME is exercising its authority under section 1307 to establish a MEP that will identify, recruit, and serve the eligible migrant children who reside in the States of Connecticut and Rhode Island. If necessary, the OME reserves the option of adding additional States to this contract through a supplemental task order and supplemental funding. The Department requires contractor support to operate a MEP for the benefit of migrant children who reside in the States identified in this PWS (CT and RI) and any other State(s) identified in a subsequent task order(s). These States will be referred to as the "target States" in the remainder of this synopsis. During the base year of the contract, the contractor shall perform the following major tasks: (1) create and implement an effective program design plan and process to identify, recruit, and serve migrant children in the target States; (2) identify and recruit eligible migrant children in the target States; (3) develop a comprehensive needs assessment (CNA) for each target State's children; (4) electronically collect data on identified migrant children and report minimum data elements (MDE) to the Migrant Student Information Exchange (MSIX); and (5) provide supplemental support services for identified children, including but not limited to, ensuring the exchange of their academic and health information using MSIX. During the first option year of the contract the contractor shall perform the following major tasks: (1) create and implement a service delivery plan (SDP) that addresses the needs identified in the CNA and are specific for each target State; (2) provide high-quality instructional and support services to migrant children as described in the target State's SDP; (3) perform a program evaluation and identify areas of improvement for each target State; and (4) conduct re-interviews of migrant parents and children for quality control. During the second, third and fourth option years, the contractor shall continue to operate a MEP for each target State, adhering to all requirements in this PWS, in Title I Part C of the statute, and in the MEP regulations (34 CFR) Part 200.81-200.89 and 34 CFR 200.100-103. The Government intends to award this contract on the basis of best value using Full and Open Competition among public and private nonprofit agencies. It is anticipated that the resulting contract will be a fixed-price-award-fee (FPAF) contract awarded to a single provider with a one-year base period with three (3) one-year option periods. Proposals shall be required within 30 days of the issuance of the RFP. EMAIL INQUIRIES IN LIEU OF TELEPHONE INQUIRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED. Electronic submissions will be accepted and should be directed to the following e-mail address: jason.wilson@ed.gov. Please include the name of a point of contact, e-mail address, telephone number and facsimile number. Questions will be addressed and posted to the following website: www.fbo.gov. With the exception of written questions pertaining to the solicitation, ED will not accept written correspondence, literature or any other proposal-type submissions from companies. The RFP is issued June 7, 2010. Proposals are due July 7, 2010.
