Summary

This is a Project Cost Template (Appendix F) associated with the Rural Health Transformation Program Support Services contract opportunity issued by the State of Delaware's Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Public Health. The template establishes the framework for contractors to present deliverables and associated costs across multiple project phases aligned with Appendix B program components. The document outlines a payment structure whereby contractors define their project plan through detailed phases, activities, and deliverables, with payment contingent upon successful completion and approval of each specified component. The template includes sections for Component 1, Component 2, Reporting and Communication Requirements, and additional project phases, each with corresponding project costs that sum to a total project cost figure.

The template requires contractors to itemize costs by phase and deliverable, creating a performance-based compensation model where payment is directly tied to deliverable completion and approval. The Rural Health Transformation Program aims to expand healthcare access and strengthen workforce capacity in rural Sussex and Kent Counties, serving approximately 400,000 rural residents representing 38-40% of Delaware's population through 15 integrated initiatives. Selected vendors will provide grant program oversight and evaluation services to support coordination, monitoring, and execution of implementation activities necessary to advance initiative milestones and meet federal grant requirements, with all services to be performed in coordination with Delaware state staff and responsive to evolving program implementation needs.
