Additional Information

Please note services provided as a result of this RFP will be based on the Pay for Success” (PFS) program model. One of the most important characteristics of PFS is its grounding in performance and articulation of specific measurable outcomes that define success. Proposed metrics should allow for midcourse corrections, and outcome targets should be ambitious, yet achievable. Targets should be chosen to reflect meaningful outcome impacts for beneficiaries and, if possible, correspond to savings for the government. Upon award, OCFS reserves the right to have discussions with selected contractors about the government's desired objective and to determine final outcome targets for the contract term. The purpose of this discussion is so that all parties to the resulting contract understand and agree with how success will be measured during the term of the agreement to avoid confusion, complication, and disputes at implementation, conclusion and evaluation stages. As a Pay for Success Initiative, WDDP applicants will be required to provide a 5% cash match. Awardees who meet all of the performance outcomes will be reimbursed the 5% match. The reimbursement of match is included within the $5.5 million total funds available. An additional 5% of the awarded amount will be paid to awardees exceeding their proposed targets for all five performance targets required by the RFP by at least one youth at the end of the contract term. Individual awards shall not exceed 5% of the initial contract award amount and results in up to an additional $275,000 statewide.
