Applications must be submitted electronically via the TWC Procurement Portal in PDF format.

Award decisions are based on the applicant's ability to meet all requirements and their performance history in the CPA Texas Vendor Performance Tracking System. Contractors must adhere to strict compliance standards, including mandatory criminal background checks for key personnel and cybersecurity training for staff accessing state systems. Providers are required to maintain specific insurance coverages and certify their physical locations to ensure safety and ADA accessibility. Payments are made electronically via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts based on a set fee schedule, though TWC provides no guarantee of total volume or compensation. Performance is monitored through comprehensive assessments and narrative progress reports that document customer goals, training hours, and measurable outcomes.
