The accompanying state and local contract opportunity describes a procurement for a contractor to design and implement a database supporting child care licensing functions for providers and facilities, subsidy, and contracting activities. The project is funded through the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG), which provides discretionary appropriations to support grants for low-income working families' child care expenses. Key agencies involved include the Department of Public Health and Human Services, with the project aimed at improving overall child care quality and supply through a comprehensive database system that supports licensing, subsidy, and administrative functions.
