About this vehicle
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) established the ADELE-QRI Master BPA on September 16, 2016, with ordering authority closed as of September 15, 2021. This vehicle is no longer active; the last task order award occurred on August 7, 2021, approximately five years ago. The combined potential value of all 36 task orders stands at $1.17 billion, with $1.09 billion already obligated (93% of potential value).
The vehicle procures agile solution architecture and design, agile application development, data analytics, systems integration, DevOps, and business process analysis services to support CMS quality-reporting systems. Task orders address core Quality Payment Program (QPP) platforms, hospital and quality improvement organization reporting systems, end-stage renal disease quality systems, and underlying foundational components. Work is performed across CMS's Center of Clinical Standards and Quality and related divisions nationwide.
Competition under ADELE-QRI concentrates heavily on a small set of primes. Semanticbits LLC dominates with 19 orders valued at $635.8 million combined potential value, representing roughly 54 percent of the vehicle's total potential value. Bellese Technologies, LLC (5 orders, $200.3 million), Ventera LLC (3 orders, $140.7 million), Flexion Inc. (5 orders, $100.4 million), and AD HOC LLC (3 orders, $74.2 million) comprise the remainder of significant competitors, with these five firms capturing 98 percent of combined potential value. All task orders funded a single customer: CMS.
The award mix strongly favors small business. Thirty-four task orders (94 percent) are designated total small business, while two orders (6 percent) carry no set-aside. Task orders employ firm fixed price, time and materials, and labor hours pricing structures. Order sizes range from approximately $1.7 million to $159.5 million in ceiling value, with the largest order—a Quality Improvement and Evaluation System re-platforming effort—capped at $159.5 million. Most orders cluster in the $15 million to $75 million range. Order activity peaked in 2017 with 12 awards, declining to 4 awards in 2021 as the vehicle approached ordering closure. The source indicates recent modifications on some active orders to descope work and reduce costs aligned with a Department of Government Efficiency cost efficiency initiative.
