CT240623001-03 SFS Posting Form.docx

This is a Single Feasible Source Purchase Form for the Office of Administration, Information Technology Services Division on behalf of the Missouri Department of Social Services. The procurement seeks Curam Software Maintenance and Support services from Merative US LP for the period of October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027, with no renewal options. The Curam Social Program Management software serves as the core framework for Missouri's Eligibility Determination and Enrollment System (MEDES), the Department of Social Services' public assistance case management application. The software, initially purchased from IBM in 2013, contains over twenty modules supporting various functions including case management, life events, income support, and evidence and verification. No alternative software can replace Curam without requiring complete system redevelopment and decommissioning of the existing MEDES platform. The contract is being pursued as a single feasible source acquisition under RSMo. 34.044 due to Merative's sole ownership of the proprietary Curam Social Program Management software.

The State has designated Merative as the only feasible source for acquiring necessary support and maintenance services for the Curam software due to its proprietary nature and critical role in MEDES operations. The procurement contact is Kelly Miller at the Office of Administration, reachable at (573) 751-4885, Kelly.Miller@oa.mo.gov, or purchmail@oa.mo.gov. The Single Feasible Source Number is STATE 0000000554SL. This amendment represents Amendment 03 to Contract CT240623001.
