I. INTRODUCTION

A. BERNALILLO COUNTY METROPOLITAN COURT

The Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court (“Court”) was created pursuant to NMSA 1978, § 34-8A-1 et seq., and

is a court of limited jurisdiction located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

B. PURPOSE OF THIS REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

The purpose of this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) is to solicit proposals, in accordance with the New Mexico

Procurement Code, NMSA 1978, § 13-1-28 et seq. The Court is requesting proposals, including statements of

qualifications and performance data, from national, local, state, private, and/or public organizations (“Offerors”)

that by reason of their skill, knowledge, and experience are able to furnish services in accordance with the Scope of

Work set forth in this RFP.

C. SUMMARY OF SCOPE OF WORK

The Court desires to procure alcohol monitoring and global positioning system (“GPS”) tracking devices and the

associated services to install, administer, and maintain these devices for individuals participating (“Participants”)

in each of the following Specialty Court programs: DWI Recovery Court (“Recovery Court”), Urban Native

American Healing to Wellness Court Program (“HTW”), Domestic Violence Solutions Treatment Education

Program (“DVSTEP”), Behavioral Health Court (“BHC”), Behavioral Health DWI Court (“BHC-DWI”), and

Community Veterans Court (“CVC”) (collectively “Programs” or “Specialty Court Programs”). The goals of these

Programs include improving public safety by reducing criminal recidivism and supporting the recovery of the

defendant/probationers who participate in these Specialty Court Programs from substance abuse. The Scope of

Work is fully detailed in Section IV of this RFP.

The Metropolitan Court is requesting proposals that comply with New Mexico law. The term of the initial

contract(s) shall begin on July 1, 2026, as soon as an award pursuant to the RFP is made and a Contract is finalized.

D. SCOPE OF PROCUREMENT

The scope of this procurement is to establish a costs schedule from qualified Offerors for a period of up to ten (10)

years, subject to available funding, i.e. for Fiscal Year 2027 (July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027), Fiscal Year 2028

(July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028), Fiscal Year 2029 (July 1, 2028 to June 30, 2029), Fiscal Year 2030 (July 1,

2029 to June 30, 2030), Fiscal Year 2031 (July 1, 2030 to June 30, 2031), Fiscal Year 2032 (July 1, 2031 to

2034), Fiscal Year 2035 (July 1, 2034 to June 30, 2035), and Fiscal Year 2036 (July 1, 2035 to June 30, 2036).

Subject to available funding, the Court in its discretion may enter into an agreement for more than one (1) year

and/or may renew the term of the Contract. As this is an RFP for non-professional services as defined in the NM

Procurement Code, the Court requests that Offerors provide a cost schedule for a total of ten (10) years pursuant

to NMSA 1978, §13-1-150.

Any Contract awarded as a result of this RFP process may be terminated if sufficient appropriations or

authorizations do not exist or as otherwise allowed under the terms of the Contract. Such termination will be

effected completed by sending written notice to the Contractor (defined below). The Court’s decision as to whether

sufficient appropriations and authorizations are available will be accepted by the Contractor as final.

The initial term of the Contract will begin on July 1, 2026. However, under no circumstances will any Contract,

including any extensions thereof, extend beyond June 30, 2036.
