Solicitation 3170036743, issued by Methodist Children's Homes of Mississippi (MCH), seeks a consultant to provide trauma-informed spatial and sensory assessment, non-A/E interior design, and Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment (FF&E) advisory services. This work supports four CDBG-CV projects: a Mental Health Clinic, Therapeutic Residential Facilities, a Healing Arts Program, and a Transitional Living Program. The consultant is responsible for identifying sensory triggers, creating non-architectural design concepts, providing performance-based FF&E specifications, and offering purchasing advisory support. The role is strictly advisory; the consultant is prohibited from performing architectural or engineering services, preparing stamped drawings, or executing purchases. Proposals are due by October 19, 2026, with a projected execution date of November 9, 2026, and a notice to proceed on November 10, 2026. Evaluation factors include the respondent's trauma-informed approach, non-A/E design capability, technical handoff methodology, procurement-integrity controls, and capacity. To ensure procurement integrity, the awarded entity is ineligible for subsequent implementation contracts related to these grants and must disclose any financial relationships with proposed vendors. MCH will evaluate price reasonableness using independent cost estimates, as no project budget is disclosed in the solicitation.
