A9)
Page 5 of the RFP, Section B (SCOPE), states:
SSA is interested in contracting with a vendor to provide social adjustment (SA)
services to refugee populations which consist of, but are not limited to, refugees,
asylees, victims of human trafficking, victims of severe torture, Cuban and Haitian
entrants, and Iraqis and Afghans admitted/issued a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV).
Can a vendor use subcontractors to service the linguistic element of the project?
Yes. However, the bid proposal must outline how the vendor will provide the service
including the use of subcontractors. The resumes of subcontractors used to provide
key aspects of the required services should be included in the Key Personnel section of
the proposal.
Page 5 of the RFP, Section B (SCOPE), Third Paragraph, states:
The estimated maximum amount of funds available for SA services is $60,000 per
Federal Fiscal Year (FFY).
Is the $60,000 per family or individual per year?
The County has allocated a total of $60,000 to provide all of the services described in
the RFP for one-year. A vendor may not exceed this amount.
Does the County have any projections based on history or the anticipated withdrawal from
Afghanistan in 2014 impacting the number of refugees or visas?
No. The County does not have any projections on how the anticipated withdrawal from
Afghanistan in 2014 may impact the number of refugees or visas.
If the County experiences a higher number of refugees at the end of the initial contract term,
will the funding be increased for the extension term(s)?
The amount of money available is an allocation from the State. It is not enough to meet
the demand. Any future increase would come from the Federal government to the
State level for distribution to specific Counties. It is not possible to predict whether
additional funding will be provided.
Can the County provide reports that specify the current populace, the history of refugees
being serviced by the County and the history of primary/secondary migration to the County?
Please see Exhibit O (Refugee arrivals into California by Country/ Region of Origin) at
the end of this Addendum for the historical and most recent data on the current
County of Alameda, General Services Agency – Purchasing
RFP No. 900958, Addendum No. 1

refugee populace. This chart can also be accessed by clicking the following link,
http://www.cdss.ca.gov/refugeeprogram/res/pdf/RptCtr/ArrivalsData/0711FiveYrArrivalsByCountyAndRegion.pdf
The County does not have data describing the history of primary/secondary migration
to Alameda County.
Q10) Is the awarded vendor supposed to pay the subcontractor(s) from the $60,000 allocated
budget?
A10) Yes, the $60,000 is the maximum annual budget to provide these services.
Q11) Will the funding amount change in the future?
A11) The County does not anticipate any funding change; historically, funding tends to go
down instead of going up.
Q12) Does the awarded vendor have the discretion to help fewer refugees at a deeper level or does
the vendor have to take on all assigned cases?
A12) The discretion is up to the vendor, each bidder must submit a description of their
program as part of their bid response. The bid response should outline the program
design, mission, philosophy, purpose and how services will be distributed. The County
will evaluate this information to arrive at a decision as to award.
Q13) Does the philosophy of the program need to be disclosed in the proposal or is that up to the
vendor’s discretion afterwards?
A13) The philosophy is a part of the program design and must be included in the bid
response. Please see page 23 of the RFP, Section M (EVALUATION CRITERIA /
SELECTION COMMITTEE), Item G (Program Design). There are 25 points for this
criterion out of a total of 100 available points, so it is heavily weighted. Bid responses
should address each of the evaluation criteria to achieve the maximum number of
points.
Q14) If service demand is high in the beginning of the contract and funds are drained within the
first three (3) months, what happens to remaining nine (9) months of the contract?
A14) Bidders are required to submit a program design that will provide services for oneyear. During the one-year contract term, the awarded bidder’s program activities and
invoices will be monitored and approved by the Social Services Agency (SSA). Part of
the purpose of this step is to oversee the rationing and use of funds.
Q15) Is the County looking for vendors that can leverage the $60,000 annual budget with
volunteer connections?
A15) Bidders must propose a program designed to the County. It is up to each bidder to
decide how to leverage their connections to provide the services specified in the RFP
and stay within the $60,000 annual budget amount.
County of Alameda, General Services Agency – Purchasing

and submit detailed leverage information on Exhibit B-1 (Line Item/Detail Narrative

linguistically diverse population; (4) the qualifications and experience necessary to

required data and submit accurate, timely reports to the County.
Can the County specify diverse? Would two (2) different refugee groups be diverse or is the
County expecting bidders to serve the whole scope of eligible newcomers?
A18) The County is looking for a single contract to be able to address all refugee needs.
When the County says diverse that would include any eligible refugee who comes to the
County for assistance.
Q19) Are the services for specific refugees or are victims of human trafficking also eligible?
A19) Victims of human trafficking are eligible to receive the services described in this RFP.
Please see page 5 of the RFP, Section B (SCOPE):

Exhibit B-1 (LINE ITEM / DETAIL NARRATIVE TABLE).

REQUIREMENTS), Item 1.b., states:

Does the 51% requirement apply to the lead agency or to the subcontractor(s)?
A21) The 51% requirement applies to the prime vendor which is the lead agency.
Q22) Is the intent of this RFP to award one contract with an option to renew for a not to exceed
amount of $60,000?
A22) The County intends to award one (1) contract to one (1) vendor. The initial contract

$60,000. Future funding is not guaranteed and is subject to change based on Federal
and State allocations.

REQUIREMENTS), Item 1.a., states:
Bidder must be regularly and continuously engaged in the business of providing SA
services to refugee populations for at least five (5) consecutive years within the last
seven (7) years.
Will the County consider changing the minimum requirement of five (5) years experience so
new emerging MAAs can participate in the bid?

emerging MAAs subcontract with an experienced MAA who meets the vendor
minimum requirements.

organization?
A24) The lead agency/prime bidder must be a MAA. There are no specific requirements for

A25) The Social Adjustment RFP was based on the County Refugee Plan (page 16) that was

Q26) Will the County revise the requirements if none of the vendors can meet the minimum
vendor qualifications?
A26) The County cannot deviate from the specification of the current County Refugee Plan.

adjustment requirements at that time.
Q27) Will the County cancel the bid if there is only one (1) qualified vendor?
A27) No.

held in early 2013. The County will consider vendor recommendations when
developing the new County Refugee Plan that will be submitted to the State in late
2013.
Q32) Has the current RFP criteria been successful with regard to receiving competitive bids?
A32) A variation of the current RFP criteria was released in the past. The previous RFP
resulted in at least two (2) bid responses, but no contract was awarded.
Q33) The RFP will result in a one-year contract but the County Refugee Plan is for three (3) years.
Is this correct?
A33) Yes, this is correct.
The County intends to award a one-year contract with one (1) single year option to
renew. The County may have to go out to bid again after the one-year contract due to

changes in a new County Refugee Plan. The new County Refugee Plan that will be
submitted to the State in 2013 will expire in 2016.
Q34) Page of the RFP, Section M (EVALUATION CRITERIA / SELECTION COMMITTEE),
Paragraph Seven, states:
Each of the following Evaluation Criteria below will be used in ranking and
determining the quality of bidders’ proposals. Proposals will be evaluated according
to each Evaluation Criteria, and scored on a five-point scale. The scores for all the
Evaluation Criteria will then be added according to their assigned weight (below) to
arrive at a weighted score for each proposal. A proposal with a high weighted total
will be deemed of higher quality than a proposal with a lesser-weighted total. The
final maximum score for this project is five hundred (500) points.
The evaluation criteria on pages 21-23 of the RFP add up to 100 points but the final
maximum score for this project is 500 points, will there be five (5) evaluators?
A34) No, this does not mean there will be five (5) evaluators.
Each member of the County Selection Committee (CSC) will review and rate each
proposal on a scale of one (1) to five (5) in each Evaluation Criteria category. The
average of the CSC ratings is multiplied by the Evaluation Criteria Weight to
determine a bidder’s overall score.
For example, if a bidder receives an averaged rating of five (5) in category D (Budget &
Cost Effectiveness), then the bidder’s rating would be multiplied by the Weight (10
Points) for an overall score of 50 points. The highest score available is a score of five
(5) times the total weight of 100 points for a total of 500 points.
