The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a $1,000 ceiling value to Avar Consulting Inc., a minority-owned, woman-owned small business, to provide services for the Beneficiary and Family Centered Care Quality Improvement Organization (BFCC-QIO) program. This IDC has a 10-year ordering period and is part of the larger BFCC-QIO contract vehicle. Under this IDC, CMS issued a $25,087,797.16 cost-plus-fixed-fee Delivery Order to Avar Consulting to serve as the National Coordinating & Oversight Review Center (NCORC) for the BFCC-QIO program, which aims to improve healthcare services for Medicare beneficiaries through quality of care reviews, beneficiary complaint reviews, and other oversight functions. The original solicitation, released in April 2018, indicated that CMS intended to award multiple IDIQ contracts through a full and open competition for the BFCC-QIO program, with task orders being issued separately. Avar Consulting, a subsidiary of the woman-owned small business Amdex Corporation, has a proven track record of providing evaluation, research, and analytical support services to various federal agencies.
