AI Contract Overview
The Hawaii State Department of Education issued Request for Information (RFI) F26-041 on December 9, 2025, seeking community input to assist in planning and developing a future formal solicitation for Surrogate Parent Services for Special Education and Section 504 students statewide. The services involve appointing qualified surrogate parents to act on behalf of students whose legal guardians or parents are unknown or unavailable to make educational decisions. This role is essential to ensure compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, safeguarding the educational rights of students with disabilities throughout Hawaii’s public school system. Feedback from interested parties was requested by December 22, 2025, with the aim of shaping the scope, requirements, and evaluation criteria for a forthcoming Request for Proposal (RFP). As a pre-solicitation document, the RFI does not specify contract clauses, pricing, evaluation factors, or formal award criteria at this stage, nor does it outline delivery schedules or periods of performance, as it seeks information rather than proposals. The services sought are ongoing and as-required, statewide within the Hawaii Department of Education’s jurisdiction. The RFI also lacks packaging, invoicing, or inspection details, reflective of its human services focus rather than goods or physical deliverables. Stakeholders are encouraged to submit written feedback via email to the designated point of contact, Drew Saranillio. The information gathered will inform the development of a comprehensive competitive solicitation that will establish technical requirements, quality standards, and contractual terms necessary to deliver surrogate parent services statewide.
