DESCRIPTION

Schedule A Language Revisions

Change Notice #3, Effective 8/22/2022 MA # 200000000771

The following language revisions are made to Schedule A, Statement of Work with this Change Notice.

A. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Section 3. General Requirements, Subsection A. Mailroom

Services, 8. is revised to read as follows:

8. Contractor must retain original imaged documents by batch identity for 90 calendar days and disposed of in compliance with IRS Publication 1075 requirements. All original documents must be free of any live payments and be quality checked before disposal.

Contractor will shred documents by using an IRS Pub 1075 compliant shredder for all paper documents containing not only FTI, but also Personally Identifiable Information

(PII).

B. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Section 3. Requirements, Subsection C. Suspense/Research and Resolution Services, 3. 1st paragraph is revised to read as follows:

3. Contractor must deploy business processes that use phone calls, mailing letters, and other electronic means or best practices to appropriately disburse payments instead of the payments going to MiCSES unidentified (UNID). All pre-MiCSES research items (if a pre-MiCSES research database is chosen by the Contractor) are to be resolved within 10 business days following the date of receipt. Regardless of which option is chosen, the Contractor must act upon any information provided such that payments to families are not delayed after research information is discovered. By the close of the 10th business day, it is expected that this work activity will reduce or eliminate the amount of the initial day’s research transaction. On average about 1.5% of the total days receipt volumes go into pre-MiCSES research. About 1.3% of the total days' receipt item volumes go to UNID hold in MiCSES. If volume of the initial day’s research transactions, ending up in MiCSES UNID, exceeds 1.5% monthly average, the Contractor will review the problem and determine a solution to bring the volume back in line or reduce the volume further. The exceptions to the rule for further research payments are items such as FIDM, Insurance Claims Data Match, NSF Recoupment, Bank adjustments, and refunds that go to MiCSES UNID will be worked per the Contractor’s processes. The Contractor may also contact the FOC for additional information, especially related to those orders that are not yet on the system, but only as a last resort.

C. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Section 3. General Requirements, Subsection G. Quality

Assurance, 6b. is revised to read as follows:

b. Call center customer service representatives (CSR) will have QA at a level of no less than two calls monitored from each CSR per day.

D. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Section 3. General Requirements, Subsection I. Reporting and Operational Service Level Agreements. The following language is added as a second paragraph, prior to 1. Receipting, as follows:

The State recognizes that report formats and approach (e.g. dashboards) will change during the life of the Contract. The contractor will maintain the most current versions of reports addressing the needs identified in the below descriptions within a Report Dictionary on the Contractor's intranet site accessible to State staff.

E. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Section 3. General Requirements, Subsection I. Reporting and Operational Service Level Agreements, 2. Research, i. Stop Payment Requests- the Service Level Agreement language is revised to read as follows:

Service Level Agreement:

The penalties for failure to meet the “Report Requirement” are as follows:

• $500 for failure to provide the report within 3 business days of the end of the reporting week.

• $100 for each stop payment check request not processed in MiCSES within 7 business days of request received at the MiSDU from the customer.

F. Schedule A, Statement of Work, Subsection F. Financial Services, 29. is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with:

29. In accordance with the State of Michigan Financial Management Guide (FMG) Part VII:

Internal Control, Chapter 1, Section 1000: Managing and Evaluating Controls for Third- Party Risks Managing and Evaluating Controls for Third-Party Risks (sharepoint.com), Contractor must allow audits and verification of all processes, work methods, transactions, and information systems as described in 24.7 of the Standard Contract Terms. In addition, Contractor must annually provide the State, at contractor’s expense, a Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type II by American Institute of CPA’s (AICPA). The SOC 2 provides reporting on internal controls at a service organization relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.
