About this file
This document is an Exhibit 1 MBE, VSBE, and SBR Research Factors Template for a Request for Proposal (RFP) involving the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), DBM SLEOLA Medical Plan, and MDOT-MTA, covering Health Plan Administration and Services across four functional areas: PPO-SF/EPO-SF, Point Solutions, IHM-FI, and PPO-SF/EPO-SF/POS-SF. The solicitation is identified by multiple numbers including F10B6600001/BPM051063, with an effective date of July 2024 and Amendment #3.
The document provides a comprehensive analysis of potential minority business enterprises (MBEs), veteran-owned small businesses (VSBEs), and small business reserve (SBR) participants for this procurement. While the scope of the procurement is too large to be procured as a Small Business Reserve contract, the research identifies numerous potential subcontractors across various industries, including human resources consulting (340 MBEs), marketing consulting services (75 MBEs), insurance agencies (53 MBEs), and temporary help services (86 MBEs). The research also reveals significant numbers of potential veteran-owned and small businesses in categories such as management consulting, human resources consulting, and marketing services, indicating a robust potential subcontractor ecosystem for this health plan administration services contract.
