About this file
This is Addendum No. 2 to Request for Offers (RFO) No. HHS0014578 issued by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of Family and Protective Services for BMC Subscriptions, Maintenance Services and Support. The addendum makes two key modifications to the original RFO: it replaces Section 2.1.3.3.6 regarding Relevant Quality Processes and Section 3.6.3 regarding the Submission Checklist. The new quality processes section outlines contractor responsibilities for managing quality processes and software industry best practices for technology assessment and planning deliverables, including IT effectiveness, maturity, governance, project management and architecture requirements.
The revised submission checklist details required documentation categorized as either Solicitation Consideration (SC) or Award Consideration (AC) documents. Key required submissions include a narrative proposal, company information, various certifications and assurances, financial documentation, cost proposal, and HUB Subcontracting Plan. The checklist specifies that searchable PDF files are required where noted and that both electronic and hand-made signatures are acceptable for exhibits requiring signatures. The addendum emphasizes that Solicitation Consideration Documents will be reviewed as received without opportunity for remedy, while HHSC may allow some remediation of missing Award Consideration Documents at their discretion.
