AI Contract Overview
The County of Cumberland in North Carolina is seeking proposals through RFP 2026 - WHITE FLAG SHELTER to operate temporary emergency shelters during extreme cold weather events, defined as temperatures or wind chills at or below 32°F, between November 1, 2025, and March 31, 2026, for an anticipated 50 operational days per year. The solicitation, issued on August 10, 2026, with a response deadline of September 1, 2026, targets vendors capable of rapidly deploying safe, low-barrier shelters within Cumberland County that comply with local fire, safety, and occupancy codes. Required services include providing cots, linens, meals, showers, restrooms, and trauma-informed care to individuals experiencing homelessness, along with real-time data entry into the Homeless Management Information System. Proposals must be submitted electronically as a single document no longer than 10 pages, using at least 11-point font and without any web links or external attachments. The evaluation is based on a best overall value trade-off approach, weighting qualifications and experience of the firm at 30%, staff qualifications and experience at 20%, technical approach at 20%, cost proposal at 20%, and internal training policies—covering staff and client safety, trauma-informed care, and misconduct prevention—at 10%. The cost proposal must include a justified per-person, per-night rate, maximum bed capacity, and a detailed budget narrative. Vendors must provide proof of insurance and demonstrate operational readiness, but no federal entity identifiers, socioeconomic certifications, or military standards apply. There is no specified contract value, payment method, or formal contracting officer designation; inquiries should be directed to Heather Skeens, Assistant County Manager. The place of performance is an approved facility within Cumberland County, with no FOB or delivery terms applicable, as the requirement is for service delivery rather than goods supply, under the NAICS code 624210 for social assistance.
