Request For Applications (RFA) Environmental Modification Consultants

The Oregon Department of Human Services, Office of Aging and People with Disabilities, is seeking qualified vendors to provide Environmental Modification Consultation and Project Management services. The primary objective is to conduct assessments and develop scopes of work for modifying the primary residences of individuals with physical limitations to enhance their health, safety, and independence. The agency intends to award multiple contracts with an initial two-year term, starting in October 2026, with options to renew for a cumulative maximum of five years. Compensation is set at 425.00 dollars per assessment and 165.00 dollars per hour for consultation per consumer, with travel reimbursement available for pre-approved trips exceeding 40 miles one-way. To be eligible, applicants must demonstrate at least three years of experience with ADA-compliant environmental modifications and provide three reference letters from similar projects completed within the last three years. The application process is conducted through the OregonBuys portal and requires a comprehensive packet including professional certifications, resumes, examples of work, a project implementation plan, and a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan. Award decisions are based on a review of minimum qualifications and responsibility rather than a weighted scoring system. Selected contractors must adhere to strict confidentiality standards and comply with various federal and state regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.
