RFI for Vocational Training Services

The Federal Bureau of Prisons, acting through a government authority located in Grand Prairie, Texas, is seeking information to identify qualified vendors capable of providing vocational training services for inmates. The agency requires an occupational education program that falls under the provider's umbrella of accreditation and leads to transferable college credits resulting in a college certificate or an industry-accepted certification. This program must qualify inmates for at least an entry-level position of employment upon completion of their courses. Bidders must be accredited by a recognized accrediting agency and must operate as an onshore, United States-based organization. The agency requires the selected provider to perform all work offsite at the vendor's own office location. Because this is a Request for Information, the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine budget feasibility and has not established a set funding amount or specific evaluation criteria.
