Current Procurement Opportunities

Home Modification Services for Older Adults

Tri-County Regional Planning Commission (TCRPC) is assisting the METEC Resource Center (METEC) in implementing the Older Adults Home Modification Program (OAHMP), funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This program supports low-income senior homeowners (age 62 and older) by providing essential, non-medical home modifications. The goal is to improve safety, accessibility, and functionality so older adults can age in place with greater independence and dignity.

TCRPC and METEC are requesting Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from interested and qualified contractors to provide these home modification services, as outlined in Section 2.0 Project Description in the RFQ. Contractors who satisfactorily meet the criteria outlined in Section 10.0 Selection Criteria in the RFQ will be placed on a Prequalified Contractors List for future project assignments under the program. The procurement opportunity is available below.
