About this file

This document is a detailed Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Global Nurse Advice Line - Next Generation (GNAL-NG) contract solicited by the Defense Health Agency. The solicitation (HT0011-25-R-0044) seeks a contractor to provide 24/7 telehealth registered nurse triage services for Military Health System beneficiaries, with a base period of 4 months for transition-in and 8 months of core services, followed by potential 12-month option periods. The contract includes services such as eligibility verification, care coordination, AI-driven triage, business intelligence reporting, and continuous operations across multiple communication channels.

The RFP is set aside for small businesses with a size standard of $19,500,000 and NAICS code 541990. The total contract period could extend up to 66 months, with the initial contract award expected on or around 25 April 2025. Offerors must submit comprehensive proposals including technical approach, management plan, past performance, small business participation plan, and pricing information by 15 August 2025 at 4:00 PM EST. Key evaluation factors include technical approach (most important), past performance, and price, with mandatory URAC Health Clinical Contact Center accreditation. Oral presentations are scheduled between 25-29 August 2025, and the government intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract using a best value continuum approach.

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.204-21 BASIC SAFEGUARDING OF COVERED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS (NOV 2021)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public websites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

The Offerors Participants shall not reach back, by telephone, e-mail or any other means, to any other personnel or persons for assistance during the oral presentation. Oral Presentation Procedures (Prepared PowerPoint Slide Presentation)

Offer Content and Format. An offer shall consist of a cover letter and six volumes: Volume 1- URAC Health Clinical Contact Center or Health Call Center Accreditation (PWS 1.5) (3 page count maximum), Volume 2- briefing material for the Offeror’s Technical approach, Volume 3- Management Plan Approach (20 page count maximum) and Key Personnel (30 page count maximum), Volume 4- Past Performance References (no page limit), Volume 5- Small Business Participation Plan (no page limit), and Volume 6- Price information (no page count). A offer page is

8.5 inches by 11 inches with 1- inch margins using single lines in Times New Roman font of no less than 12-point size font. Tables, graphics, and callouts may use 10-point font. Narrative shall be submitted in MS Word or searchable PDF Format. Detailed pricing information shall be submitted in tabular format in MS Excel. Proposals may only be submitted electronically via email to the Contracting Officer listed in the solicitation by the due date and time on the solicitation. File size limit per email is 25MB. Offeror’s whose proposals require the submission of more than one email shall use the subject line to identify the number of emails being sent. For example, “ABC Company Proposal email 1 of 3. The Offeror’s company name (no logos), the date, solicitation number, and volume number shall be included on each page of the offer (this information may be included in a header/footer). All pages of the offer volumes shall be numbered, using a uniform numbering system. Page numbers, headers and footers may be outside the page margins and are not bound by the font and point size requirement. Any offer containing proprietary information shall be clearly marked. All pricing information shall be addressed ONLY in the Price Volume. Each volume shall contain a glossary of all abbreviations and acronyms used, and with an explanation for each. Glossaries do not count against the page limitations for their respective volumes.

Cover Letter Instructions. The cover letter shall reference the solicitation number and identify all enclosures being transmitted as part of the offer. The cover letter shall include the Company Name, Address, Contact and Unique Entity ID number, and Cage code. The cover letter shall identify the name, address (if different from the company address), telephone number and e-mail address of the individual authorized to provide clarifications and have communications with the Government. Cover letters shall state offer validity at least 180 days from the date of submittal and shall provide a statement specifying the extent of agreement with terms, conditions, provisions, and representations and certifications included in the solicitation.

Cover letters shall indicate receipt of solicitation and all amendments by incorporating a copy of the Standard Form (SF) 1449 and one (1) copy of each SF 30 or by listing solicitation and each amendment. The cover letter may include any other information required for compliance with the solicitation, but not specified for inclusion in a proposal volume. Contents of the cover letter will not be evaluated against the evaluation criteria specified in 52.212-2. The cover letter has no page limit.

Volume 1, Factor 1 – URAC Health Clinical Contact Center or Health Call Center Accreditation (PWS 1.5). The Government will evaluate Factor 1 – URAC Accreditation for only the apparent successful offeror (prior to award).

If apparent successful offeror is rated acceptable, then the Government will issue an award to this offeror. If the offeror is rated unacceptable for factor 1, then the offeror will be deemed ineligible and shall not be considered for award . The Contracting Officer will then evaluate URAC Accreditation for the next highest rated best value offeror to determine the offeror’s eligibility for award. The process will be repeated until the Contracting Officer determines that an identified offeror is eligible for award.

Volume 2, Technical Approach. The overall proposal shall consist of a Microsoft Teams oral presentation of Volume 2. In the event ambiguities or conflicts exist between the oral presentation and elements within offeror’s written documentation, the offeror’s written documentation will take precedence over oral presentation and videotapes of the oral presentation. Within one of these elements, for any conflicts between written description/approach and numeric data or figures, the numeric data or figures shall take precedence. Offerors may explicitly correct discrepancies noted between elements of the proposal during the oral presentation and such corrections must be verified in writing.

Although there is no restriction upon the number of briefing charts, the offeror should consider the time required to present the charts, plus the time required for questions and answers when determining how many charts to utilize.

Only charts addressed in the oral presentation will be considered for the evaluation. The Government reserves the right to delete any charts that are illegible. Briefing charts shall be numbered and may be in black and white or in color, but it is the Government’s desire to avoid elaborate multimedia presentations. To aid offerors during presentations, and to avoid duplication of redundant charts, briefing displays such as large-scale schedules and photos may be used during presentations, provided a copy is included in briefing charts presented. Offerors should ensure that the content presented on large-scale displays is also fully and clearly represented in the soft copy of the presentation provided to the government. Avoid relying on display techniques that cannot be easily replicated in a standard document (PDF or .docx). Offerors are responsible for set up prior to presentation time. Any classified briefing charts shall be cross referenced (one page) in the unclassified presentation/volume, segregated and included on separate charts in a classified presentation/volume marked appropriately. In addition to the PowerPoint charts, an acronym list, an agenda listing approximate length of each briefing subject, and a listing of names and position titles of all presenters shall be included in the front of Volume 2.

The Government intends to conduct questions and answers after oral presentations in order to maximize the Government’s ability to obtain best value based on the requirement and the evaluation factors set forth in the solicitation.

It is not acceptable to state, "we've done this before - trust us", in the oral presentation. Offerors must demonstrate they know how to fulfill the Government’s stated requirement and can do it.

Technical Approach. The proposal shall describe how the Offeror’s plans to accomplish the work in each of the PWS Paragraphs and subparagraphs below:

A. Factor 2- Technical Approach: (Volume 2):

The offeror shall demonstrate their approach for achieving the technical objectives outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Specifically, Offerors must demonstrate their understanding of the technical scope and complexity of the work by providing detailed technical analyses of all Factor 2 and Sub-Factors. These analyses should be sufficiently precise to prove the Offeror's comprehension of the work required to produce the deliverables outlined in the PWS.

Volume 2 – Oral Presentation: Technical Approach, Volume 2 shall consist of briefing material (slides only) for the Offeror’s oral presentation. The oral presentation will serve as the primary method of evaluating the Offeror’s technical capability under Technical Factor 2 – Technical Approach, which includes the following seven (7) sub-factors:

Sub-Factor 2a. Eligibility Verification (PWS Sections 5.2.1, 5.2.2, 5.2.3 and 5.2.5) Sub-factor 2b. Telehealth Registered Nurse (RN) Triage Approach (PWS Part 5.12) Sub-Factor 2c. AI Triage Capability (PWS Section 5.13) Sub-factor 2d. Care Coordination Approach (PWS Sections 5.4.1.1, 5.4.1.4, 5.4.1.4.1, 5.4.1.4.2, 5.4.1.6, 5.4.2, PRS 1 and PRS 2) Sub-Factor 2e. First Contact Resolution (PWS Section 5.1.6.1) Sub-Factor 2f. Business Intelligence Capability (PWS 5.31 through 5.34 Sub-Factor 2g. Continuous Operations (PWS Section 5.1.4.4)

Offerors shall prepare briefing slides that clearly address each of the above sub-factors, demonstrating the Offeror’s understanding, methodology, experience, and ability to meet or exceed the requirements outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). Slides should be logically organized, concise, and visually clear. The presentation material must be standalone. Evaluators will only consider the content presented in the slides when assessing technical merit.

Any detailed narrative explanation or supporting information must be incorporated into the slides themselves. If the Offeror is relying on a teaming partner or subcontractor to meet the URAC accreditation standards in Volume 1, then the Offeror shall clearly identify in Volume 2 the tasks associated with this teaming partner or subcontractor. Note:

PWS section 1.5 states “ the teaming partner or subcontractor associated with the URAC accreditation shall be the one working on all the tasks associated with the URAC accreditation standards”.
