| Type of Referenced Contract File (Select one type from drop down) | Section or Tab Name in Attachment | Page number | Offeror Question | CMS Response | Follow up Question | CMS Response | |
| Miscellaneous | 75FCMC19R0032_RFP | ||||||
| M.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL EVALUATION | Page 119 of 120 | Can CMS confirm if the past performance experience of Prime and its subcontractors will be evaluated equally? | CMS will evaluate the past performance of the prime contractors. | The evaluation criteria states that "CMS will evaluate the Offeror’s and proposed significant subcontractor(s) past performance information". |
| CMS response to Q&A contradicts the above statement. Please confirm that the past performance of both Prime and significant subcontractor will be evaluated as shown in the RFP. | This has been corrected within the RFP. | ||||||
| Attachment J.1 - SOW | Task 3 ,a and b | 8 | Will contractor computers attach through VPN or will the government provide GFE equipment setup for this? Will a HCQIS circuit be provided for direct access to HCQIS network? | CMS will not be providing GFE - contractor will be provided direct access to the HCQIS network | Will CMS please confirm that that the government will be providing the contractor with a HCQIS circuit at no-cost to the contractor? | CMS will not provide any new HCQIS circuits to new contractors. If the contractor is currently using HCQIS circuit, then they can continue using it under the new contract but it will not be free moving forward. HCQIS circuit is not required in order to access CAADS. | |
| Miscellaneous | 75FCMC19R0032_RFP |
| M.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL EVALUATION | Page 119 of 120 | Can CMS confirm if the past performance experience of Prime and its subcontractors will be evaluated equally? | CMS will evaluate the past performance of the prime contractors. | This response appears to contradict the CMS response to the question on line 60, stating that subcontractors may submit their past performance to CMS separately. If CMS is only evaluating the performance of prime contractors, will CMS please clarify the requirement of subcontractors to submit past performance? | #60 on CMS' responses is discussing the entire subcontractor proposal. Another vendor asked the question and included the words "including past performance". CMS did not reference past performance. The RFP has been updated to align. | |
| Miscellaneous | RFP Section L.10.5 (past performance) | 105 | CMS states in the Instructions that past peformance from the Offeror and all subcontractors should be within the past 3 years, in the Limits CMS states past performance should provide a list for the last 5 years. Could CMS please advise if we should include the last 3 or 5 years of relevant past performance? | Past performance request is for the past 3 years. The request for past 5 years relates to listing of all contracts and/or subcontracts for same or similar work for the prime and any subs. | The response seems to contradict itself regarding 3 years vs 5 years. Is CMS requesting 3 years of past performance and 5 years of past performance, ane evaluating them differently? |
Also, the response indicates a conflict with the response provided on line 60 regarding prime and subcontractor submissions.
| Will CMS please clarify their response and the past performance requirements? | Past Performance is 3 years. Contract list is for 5years. This was not a contradiction. Please refer above for Line 60 clarification. | ||||||
| Attachment J.1 - SOW | SOW Task 6 | 14 | Are BPM's done through CMS Enterprise Architecture? If not, is the contractor expected to perform these and If so in what format? | CMS is not prescriptive regarding the development of the BPMs. CMS can share existing BPMs | Can CMS clarify will the contractor access be through EUA, HCQIS AD or Both? If both will these be handled by different parties and/or processes | EUA is needed for the contractor to be able to “see” and work with the data needed for the analytics and EUA access is needed in order to get the HCQIS AD account. They will need HCQIS AD (Active Directory) access in order to access CAADS. | |
| Business Proposal | SECTION B: Contract Forms (Prime Only) | 106 | Section B.2 states the type of contract is FFP. Will CMS please clarify if this should state "B.3. and B.4" instead of "B.2 and B.3"? | B.2 indicates that one (1) FFP will be awarded. B.3 is the FFP CLIN table B.4 is the schedule of payments. | Does the Government require the contractor to complete Section B.33 and B.4? As-is, the instruction requires the Contractor to complete just B.2 and B.3, and not B.4, the Schedule of Payment. | This was updated in Amendment 1. | |
| Business Proposal | Section D: Subcontracts | 108 | Attachment J3 requires similar information to what is prescribed under section D (e.g., Negotiation Memo, Type of SubK, Price of SubK,); would it be acceptable to note "refer to Attachment J3" for responses? | Section D is packaging and shipping. Unable to provide a response to the question as it isnt clear what the question is. | The referenced Section D is under the Business Proposal's Instruction's Section D, which is titled "Subcontracts". Attachment J3 requires similar information to what is prescribed under Section D - Subcontracts under the Business Proposal Instructions (e.g., Negotiation Memo, Type of SubK, Price of SubK): would it be acceptable to note "refer to Attachment J3" for responses. | The RFP has been updated to remove the Negotiation Memorandum to eliminate duplicate effort. | |
| Miscellaneous | TORP | CLIN table, schedule for payments and Period of performance are indicating 61 months which includes transition. Can you confirm if that is accurate? | This has been corrected. It should be a 1mo transition, 11 mo base, and 12 mo Option Periods. |
