Subject: FW: 2015-16 RFP for New DSPS Technical Assistance Provider /
Website Hosting & Maintenance
Importance: High

 

Colleagues:

 

The California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office in conjunction with
the Yosemite Community College District (YCCD) are pleased to announce
YCCD's release of a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) to help us
identify a new DSPS Technical Assistance provider for our system beginning
with the 2015-16 PADS contract year. The awarded applicant would be taking
over the existing role of the Galvin Group, who will be retiring after this
fiscal / academic year. Please see attached the pdf and MS Word version of
the RFP including the project's Background, Scope, and Calendar of Key
Dates, etc. Furthermore, the document has been posted on the Chancellor's
Office website, following the link below to the "Resources" tab. As the RFP
directs you, please send any questions about the RFP to either Scott
Berenson or to me. For any questions related to the logistics and/or
application submittal process, please contact Carrie Sampson at YCCD.

 

If you have any direct questions for the Galvin Group, who as stated in the
RFP will be assisting the awarded subcontractor in the transitioning
process, they have generously offered to take any questions about their
existing Technical Assistance processes via their Email, at any of the
following addresses:

 

Jan Galvin: jan at galvin-group.com 

Bette McMuldren: bette at galvin-group.com 

Skip Bingham: skip at galvin-group.com 

 

The next step will be the establishment of a date and time to offer a closed
conference call (and conference call registration process) for any
interested applicants, so that all who are interested will have an equal
opportunity for an overview of the process and consistent information from
the Chancellor's Office related to this RFP. That date and time should be
scheduled by the end of this week and shared via the same channels.

 

We will be broadly distribute this RFP, but also ask your assistance by
forwarding this on to any firms or outside entities or vendors etc. whom you
or your college may have encountered or have had experience with whom you
think may be interested in applying for this contract. More information will
follow. 

 

As has been said by so many of you in so many different forums since the
Galvin Group's official announcement was made, we in the Chancellor's Office
too want to say again how much we appreciate all that Jan, Bette, and Skip
have done individually and collectively for DSPS, the Chancellor's Office
and for the CCC system as a whole during their long tenure in this role. It
has been extremely well appreciated and well received, and an innumerable
amount of colleges, individual college staff members, and students have
either directly or indirectly benefitted from your work, and you will all be
missed very considerably.

 

Thanks,
