Credit Recovery System

The School Board of Brevard County, Florida, is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive, individualized competency-based credit recovery educational software system aimed at supporting at-risk middle and high school students in meeting promotion requirements, obtaining a standard high school diploma, or passing the GED test. The solicitation, identified as RFP 26-0540-P-WH, was posted on February 10, 2026, with a response deadline of March 10, 2026. The system must align with Florida Standards and include multimedia instructional components, assessment features, and teacher customization capabilities. Additionally, vendors are expected to provide professional development services as part of the offering. The contract will be administered under the School Board’s local procurement policies without federal FAR contract clauses, emphasizing adherence to state and local regulations, including compliance with the Jessica Lunsford Act (requiring Level 2 background screening), FERPA privacy standards, and workforce verification via E-Verify. The proposal evaluation will follow a two-phase process emphasizing technical merit and cost, using a trade-off methodology rather than lowest-price-technically-acceptable criteria. Evaluation factors are weighted, with the technical approach and fee schedule each accounting for 30% of the initial submittal evaluation, along with personnel experience and reporting capabilities. The oral interview further assesses system functionality, responsiveness, and pricing. Contract deliverables include deployment within 30 calendar days post-notice to proceed, with FOB destination delivery and inspection conducted at Brevard County locations. The contract requires secure packaging per commercial standards but no specialized marking or bar-coding. Contract administration ensures payments within 45 days of invoice receipt, and records retention for five years. Key personnel must be identified with replacement requiring prior approval, and confidentiality of proprietary information must be maintained throughout and after contract performance. Proposals must include multiple attachments (e.g., signed acknowledgments, tax forms, bids), comply with detailed submission protocols via the OpenGov platform, and abide by applicable labor and security laws as stipulated by the School Board.
