As a result of this solicitation, Home Forward intends to award one contract. The contract will be for an initial period of 1 year, beginning July 2025, and will include the option of extending the contract for four additional 1-year terms.

Home Forward’s Procurement & Contracts Department will accept bids submitted electronically at Home Forward’s online submission website - https://bidlocker.us/a/homeforward/BidLocker until June 30, 2025 - 11:00 AM.

          Home Forward values fair and open access to opportunities for businesses and the workforce and allows our contractors to self-identify outside of a certification process such as COBID. In this regard, COBID and/or Underutilized Business Enterprise (UBE) are encouraged to respond to this RFP and to pursue subsequent sub-consultant and subcontractor opportunities. An aspirational goal of 30% participation has been established for this project. COBID/UBE’s include:

·         Diverse ability-owned business enterprises (DOBE)

·         Disadvantaged business enterprises (DBE)

·         Emerging small businesses (ESB)
