Request for Proposals – Substitute Staffing Services

The North Hunterdon‑Voorhees Regional High School District is seeking a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive substitute staffing services for its two high schools for the 2022‑2023 school year. The contractor must recruit, screen, train, place, and manage a pool of full‑day substitute teachers, certified instructional aides, long‑term substitutes, and non‑instructional monitors, while delivering a web‑based placement and absence‑management system, monthly reporting, and rapid response to district inquiries. The contract is a one‑year term with the possibility of up to four annual renewals, and the district requires the vendor to already be serving at least three other New Jersey public‑school districts. • Positions covered: ~230 full‑day substitute teachers, 25 certified aides, an unspecified number of long‑term substitutes, and 5 non‑instructional monitors. • Mandatory vendor qualifications: NJ business registration, proof of insurance, background‑check compliance, no subcontracting, and prior experience with three NJ districts serving 150‑200 employees each. • Pricing: Vendor‑submitted markup percentages over district pay rates; cost constitutes 40 % of the evaluation. • Deliverables: Web‑based staffing portal with automated time‑clock, monthly placement reports, 1‑business‑day response time, and a transition/contingency plan.
