About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) was awarded a $42.7 million delivery order on November 1, 2015, by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide operations, maintenance, and development services for the Risk Adjustment Suite of Systems (RASS). RASS is a mission-critical data processing and analytics platform that receives, processes, stores, and analyzes health status data used to calculate risk-adjusted payments across Medicare Advantage (Part C), Prescription Drug (Part D), Programs of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), and fee-for-service demonstrations including Accountable Care Organizations. The contract, structured as a Cost Plus Award Fee delivery order under the Chief Information Officer - Solutions and Partners 3 (CIO-SP3) vehicle, extends through August 31, 2021, and was performed at IBM's facility in Westlake, Maryland. The award carried no small business set-aside designation.

IBM engaged multiple small business subcontractors to support contract performance, including Alltech International Inc. (a minority-owned and woman-owned small business providing computer programmers, test specialists, and IT specialists), Net Media Inc. (a small disadvantaged business supplying system administration services and computer programmers), Creative Global Consulting LLC (an SBA 8(a) Program participant and woman-owned small business providing IT specialists and computer programmers), Kforce Inc. (providing temporary staffing and application developers), Index Analytics LLC (a minority-owned small disadvantaged business and 8(a) participant), Arch Systems LLC (a woman-owned small business), and Edaptive Systems LLC (a small business provider of program support services). These subcontracting relationships demonstrate IBM's utilization of socioeconomic program resources while delivering critical healthcare payment infrastructure modernization services to CMS.
