About this file

This is a Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM) document prepared by the Oklahoma Insurance Department (OID) in conjunction with the Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES) for the procurement of a comprehensive Exchange-enabling solution to support Oklahoma's operation of an EDE-first State-Based Exchange. The RTM serves as the evaluation instrument requiring bidders to demonstrate how their proposed solutions address functional, technical, implementation, and operational requirements organized across five primary categories: Program Foundations, Technical, Functional, Service Center, and Implementation. The solicitation (RFP EV00000956) requires proposals by August 26, 2026, with questions due August 7, 2026, and administrative review requests due July 30, 2026. The contract term runs through July 2027 with up to four optional one-year renewals, encompassing Design, Development, and Implementation (DDI), Technology Transition (TT), and Maintenance and Operations (M&O) phases, with a planned 2028 plan-year launch targeting 250,000 members annually and transitioning from the Federally Facilitated Marketplace to a State-Based Exchange. Mandatory qualifications require bidders to demonstrate proven experience delivering full-lifecycle implementations across at least two states, each supporting at least 100,000 enrollees, and bidders must submit minimum three completed reference questionnaires with documented marketplace experience.

The RTM document establishes 124 technical requirements, 43 functional requirements, and 19 operational requirements addressing critical capabilities including EDE-first enrollment model support, State-owned and State-governed cloud deployment within Oklahoma OMES enterprise architecture standards, full State ownership of all data and intellectual property, secure bi-directional data exchange with OKEPs and the consumer-facing portal, integration with Federal Data Services Hub and Medicaid systems, 99.9% API availability during open enrollment with response times under 2.0 seconds, and comprehensive service center operations including Tier 2 and Tier 3 support, document management, and outbound communications. Service level agreements impose liquidated damages of $10,000 per hour during open enrollment and $5,000 per hour during special enrollment periods for API availability shortfalls, capped at $250,000 monthly, with escalated damages up to 2x multiplier during the final two weeks of open enrollment. The solution must comply with 45 CFR Part 155, CMS standards including MARS-E, HIPAA, IRS Publication 1075, OMES security requirements, WCAG 2.2 and ADA accessibility standards, and employ modular architecture enabling component-level replacement without full system replacement, with all source code, executables, configurations, and intellectual property deliverable to the State.
