This is a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan attachment form for the Public Employees' Benefit Board (PEBB) in Oregon's Request for Proposal for medical and pharmacy benefits services, with a proposal submission deadline of November 14, 2025. The RFP, designated as OregonBuys Bid No. S-44300-00014758, solicits comprehensive medical and pharmacy benefits administration for PEBB members through an electronic submission process via Proposal Technologies Network, Inc.'s platform. The procurement encompasses extensive documentation including census data, medical and pharmacy claims data, provider networks, and clinical program specifications. Proposers must develop flexible benefit plans meeting PEBB's membership needs while demonstrating robust pharmacy and medical coverage with comprehensive network access and competitive pricing strategies.
Attachment E requires all proposers to complete a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan addressing participation of Oregon-certified firms, including minority-owned businesses, woman-owned businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and emerging small businesses as defined under ORS 200.055 and certified by the Oregon Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity (COBID). Proposers must disclose their own certification status, list previous contractual relationships with certified and non-certified firms, identify anticipated subcontracting opportunities with approximate dollar values, describe solicitation steps for certified firms, and confirm willingness to report subcontractor identity and values to COBID. The outreach plan information is non-scored but mandatory for contract consideration, reflecting Oregon's commitment to equal opportunity participation in state-funded procurements. The contract encompasses a significant, multi-year healthcare benefits management engagement with an anticipated value in the millions of dollars.
