Addendum No. 2 120277 03.docx

This is a Solicitation Addendum No. 2 issued by the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) for Request for Proposal Number 120277 O3 REBID, a cloud-based Vital Records Management System. The addendum, effective November 14, 2025, modifies the functional specifications by removing Line 330 from Attachment 1, which previously required the vendor to provide credit card machines for payment processing. Vendors must use the revised Attachment 1 - Functional Specifications when submitting their responses. The original solicitation was posted October 31, 2025, with proposals due November 21, 2025, at 2:00 pm CST. The system must accommodate up to 5,000 users with 1,000 concurrent users, migrate approximately 10,000,000 existing vital records, and support multiple event types including births, deaths, marriages, dissolutions, fetal deaths, and induced terminations of pregnancy. The targeted go-live date is within 15 months of the project kick-off meeting. The initial contract term is five years with an option to renew for an additional five years.

The evaluation criteria allocate points across four areas: Corporate Overview (20 points), Functional Specification (30 points), Technical Specification (30 points), and Cost Sheet (20 points), with potential additional points available for vendor demonstrations. Vendors must demonstrate compliance with HIPAA, Section 508, and NIST guidelines, and provide a fully hosted cloud environment located within the United States. The system must integrate with state and federal systems including STEVE, Social Security Administration, and Electronic Verification of Vital Events (EVVE). The pricing structure includes detailed categories for project implementation, support, maintenance, and operations with specified hourly rates for roles such as Software Engineers, IT Business Analysts, and Project Managers. No specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, and the exact budget is not disclosed in this addendum.
