Comprehensive Career Services 26

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, through MassAbility, is seeking vendors to provide comprehensive career services for individuals with disabilities, covering both employment and transition services. The work includes job‑development and placement bundles, single‑service hourly supports (job coaching, job‑search assistance, work experience, career‑specific training), youth career camps, single‑topic training sessions, and work‑based learning placements. Vendors must submit a detailed proposal by the April 13 deadline, include required forms (Supplier Diversity Plan, Department of Revenue Certificate of Good Standing, etc.), and will be evaluated on technical approach, supplier‑diversity commitment (25 % of score), and cost. The contract will run under a master‑agreement framework from July 2026 through June 2034, with quarterly ordering windows and performance‑based incentives for employment milestones. • Provide a range of workforce‑development services (employment & transition) to people with disabilities across the Commonwealth. • Deliver services via hourly rates, bundled milestone payments, and incentive payments (5‑day and 90‑day employment). • Must comply with extensive documentation requirements, including a Supplier Diversity Plan, DOR Certificate of Good Standing, and post‑award forms within five business days of award. • Contract period spans up to eight years with quarterly ordering opportunities; funding totals are roughly $11 M for employment services and $6 M annually for transition services.
