Independent Contract Relocation Specialist Services

The Tarrant County government authority in Texas requires independent contract relocation specialists to provide nursing home relocation services. The agency needs to transition individuals from nursing facilities back into the community by conducting assessments and developing person-directed or family-directed transition plans. This initiative solves the problem of delayed community reintegration for nursing home residents by providing dedicated advocacy and transition support. The scope of work covers conducting assessments within two weeks of a referral date, primarily onsite at nursing facilities, though telephonic assessments are permitted during public health emergencies. Specialists must forward assessment data to the appropriate Local Intellectual and Developmental Disability Authority if an individual has an intellectual or developmental disability. Additionally, the selected contractors must provide information about Medicaid waiver and non-waiver services, help consumers access Supplemental Transition Support benefits, and advocate for transitioning individuals and their families. Eligibility is strictly limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires physical submission of proposals via courier or post, and the performance of the work must be conducted onsite in Tarrant, Texas. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget and has not disclosed a specific funding limit. The agency will host a pre-bid conference on June 4, 2026, to discuss the opportunity. Bidders must submit all questions regarding the solicitation no later than June 18, 2026. The evaluation criteria will focus on the submitted proposals, though specific scoring weights are not detailed in the initial announcement.
