The South Carolina Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, Office of Mental Health, issued a solicitation seeking quotes to provide in-person EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) training, grounded in the Adaptive Information Processing model, to enhance trauma treatment capacity within the state's behavioral health system. The contract, with an estimated value ranging from $50,000 to $150,000, aims to train up to 15 clinicians through either two 3-day sessions or three 2-day sessions, emphasizing theoretical instruction, practical application, supervised practice, and post-training consultation. The RFQ was posted on November 19, 2025, with a response deadline of December 1, 2025, and is managed under the NAICS code 621330, which pertains to mental health practitioners. The primary point of contact is Brandalyn Brewer, reachable via email and phone. The solicitation emphasizes strict submission procedures, requiring sealed proposals clearly marked with the solicitation number and opening date, to be delivered physically to specified addresses in Columbia or Cayce, South Carolina. While the document specifies the scope of work, including the training format and participant capacity, it does not include detailed contract clauses, evaluation criteria, or a list of attachments. Notably, there are no explicit references to federal FAR clauses, contract performance standards, or detailed pricing structures within the provided materials. The absence of formal evaluation factors, clause attachments, or detailed terms suggests a streamlined, state-level procurement process focused on obtaining qualified trainers to deliver evidence-based trauma therapy education within the specified timeframe.
