4-MW26-8 Scope-of-Work MECSH for-public-posting.pdf

This is a Scope of Work document for the Utah Division of Purchasing related to the HOM-VEE (Home Visiting Evidence-Based) nursing-provided home visiting model contract (MW26-8). The project involves contracting with an organization to provide evidence-based home visiting services utilizing the HOM-VEE model, which is a nationally recognized, evidence-based nursing home visiting program. The scope outlines the services to be delivered to families with pregnant women and children under age two, focusing on improving maternal and child health outcomes. The contract represents a non-competitive procurement action, meaning the Division of Purchasing intends to award the contract to a single source without engaging in standard competitive bidding procedures, based on justifications that there is only one source capable of providing this specific evidence-based model or that transitional costs make competition impractical.

The document establishes the framework for service delivery requirements, expected outcomes, staffing qualifications, and performance metrics that the selected contractor must meet. Key requirements include compliance with HOM-VEE model fidelity standards, utilization of certified nurses as home visitors, achievement of specified enrollment and retention targets, and regular reporting on maternal and child health outcomes. The contract scope specifies training requirements, supervision protocols, and data collection obligations to ensure quality implementation of the evidence-based model. No specific contract term duration, renewal options, pricing terms, or funding amounts are detailed in this scope of work document, though these elements would be established in the formal contract award and supporting financial documents.
