Request For Information (RFI) - Residential Reentry Services for Female ONLY Located Within the City Limits of Detroit, Michigan

The U.S. Department of Justice, through the Residential Reentry - Co office, is seeking information via a Request for Information (RFI) to establish residential reentry services exclusively for females within the city limits of Detroit, Michigan. The service model includes up to 12 in-house beds and seven home confinement placements, with home confinement restricted to a 150-mile radius from the RRC facility. The RFI, issued under solicitation number 15BRRC26N00000008 and posted on April 27, 2026, with a response deadline of May 27, 2026, is classified as a sources-sought notice, meaning it is not a formal contract solicitation but a preliminary effort to gather market capabilities. Proposals must be submitted as a single PDF via email to tjankowiak@bop.gov and must include a brief description of provider capability, contact information, socio-economic status, and Unique Entity ID. Although no formal contract clause or pricing data is provided, the associated Statement of Work requires strict adherence to Bureau of Prisons operational standards, including intake procedures, medical and mental health screening, drug testing protocols with confirmed 300 ng/mL and 75 ng/mL cutoffs, 24/7 staffing, facility safety compliance with NFPA 101 and OSHA standards, and the use of approved electronic systems like R3M for case management. Staffing requirements stipulate a director with a four-year degree in social or behavioral science and two years of supervisory experience, case managers with a four-year degree and one year of relevant experience, and all personnel must complete 40 hours of initial training and 20 hours annually. The facility must also maintain translation of key documents into languages spoken by residents, establish a Community Relations Board, limit subcontracting to no more than 30% of contract value, and comply with HUD, EPA, and 42 CFR Part 493 standards. All operations must ensure equal access to programming, safeguard resident data under federal privacy laws, and maintain documentation of compliance with federal, state, and local codes. While no contract value, award method, or evaluation weights are specified, the expectation is for technically compliant services delivered at the designated Detroit location, subject to government inspections and oversight by the Residential Reentry Manager.
