Document Processing Services Cost Proposal Summary

This is a Cost Proposal form (Exhibit H) for Solicitation Number HHS0015252, Document Processing Services (DPS), issued by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC). The solicitation requests comprehensive document processing and imaging services to support public assistance programs including CHIP, Medicaid, SNAP, and TANF. The contract structure includes a transition phase lasting six months, an initial operations term of three years (36 months), and optional extension terms of two years (24 months), for a total potential contract duration of five years (60 months). Respondents must submit all-inclusive unit prices for fixed fees during the transition and operations phases, as well as tiered pricing for two transaction categories: transactions without images (estimated at 20,000 per month) and transactions with images (estimated at 300,000 per month). The cost proposal must be completed in Excel format with all yellow-highlighted cells populated by respondents, and submission must maintain the original spreadsheet structure without modifications to locked cells. All-inclusive unit prices must account for labor, materials, tools, supplies, equipment, taxes, subcontractors, consultants, travel expenses, and all incidental costs necessary to deliver the services according to solicitation specifications.

The pricing structure requires respondents to establish tiered, all-inclusive unit prices across multiple volume bands for both transaction types across the initial term and optional extension periods. For transactions without images, pricing tiers range from 1-5,000 transactions per month up to 35,001-40,000 transactions per month. For transactions with images, pricing tiers range from 1-75,000 transactions per month up to 525,001-600,000 transactions per month. The cost proposal explicitly states that estimated transaction volumes are provided for evaluation purposes only, with no guarantee of minimum volume or total compensation. The lowest total cost proposal will receive the highest available rating for the objective cost criterion, with higher-priced proposals rated proportionally lower using a specified formula. Respondents may submit an annual inflator adjustment not exceeding 3%. All pricing must include fixed fees for deliverables and transition reports, with turnover costs potentially applicable if optional extension terms are not exercised. The historical compensation for similar contracts is approximately $4.5 million per State Fiscal Year.

Notes:

1: This Data tab is used by the Procurement Financial Services analyst to enter static or controlled data in the cost proposal. This method is used to ensure that all CP tabs have the same data where necessary and allows for one change to update many cells in the CP.

2: The yellow shaded cells are used by the PFS analyst to provide basic solicitation information and the Total term, transition period and initial term durations. This data is used to calculate the Phase, Term and Month data used in the CP worksheets.

3: The Title name of each worksheet tab is used to populate the worksheet header in each worksheet and the Total Price summary. It is important to have these headers match the Phase titles in the solicitation.

4: You will find "defined names" used frequently in this CP. This provides accuracy in the calculation of values used throughout the CP. Do not change the defined names unless necessary as they may be referred in formulas used throughout the CP.
