South Region 3 Community Living Arrangements

The Connecticut Department of Developmental Services South Region is issuing a solicitation to establish three new Community Living Arrangements (CLAs) targeted at young males with behavioral health needs. The project aims to create supportive residential environments, with the solicitation opening on August 22, 2025, and closing on October 24, 2025. The contract is valued between 500,000 and 1.5 million dollars and involves providing services under FOB destination delivery terms, with the vendor responsible for the delivery and support of these residential facilities. The primary point of contact is Margaret Castonguay, and the procurement emphasizes compliance with DDS standards for service quality and timely implementation. Analysis of the available documents indicates that no specific federal or state contract clauses, regulations, or terms and conditions are incorporated or referenced within the solicitation materials. The contract emphasizes operational requirements, delivery terms, and administrative contact details but does not specify evaluation criteria, award methodology, or detailed pricing structures beyond referencing a budget summary. Similarly, there are no explicit packaging, marking, or security requirements, nor are there special clauses related to key personnel, contract modifications, or organizational conflict of interest provisions. The scope is focused on establishing and operating the CLAs, with the main deliverables being the creation of supportive residential settings for the designated population, and the administrative procedures are straightforward, with the primary emphasis on timely proposal submission and compliance with DDS standards.
