This document is a Notice of Intent to Award a contract from the Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) in response to solicitation #S-10000-00010218. ODHS intends to award a contract to North Highland to provide the required services. The contract award is subject to successful negotiations between ODHS and the selected proposer.

The related state and local contract opportunity is for a Community Information Exchange (CIE) Assessment. ODHS is seeking proposals for a contractor to conduct a comprehensive assessment on the feasibility of adopting and using a CIE network to connect ODHS clients to services and supports. The assessment will examine the benefits, risks, program and partner readiness, and legal, technical, and data governance considerations for CIE implementation. Proposals are due by June 14, 2024 at 3:00 PM, and the contract will be awarded to the highest ranked responsible proposer, with the option to renew for up to 2 additional years. ODHS encourages participation from certified small, minority-owned, woman-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, and emerging small businesses, who must submit a Certified Disadvantaged Business Outreach Plan as part of the proposal. The assessment is funded by the state of Oregon, though the exact budget amount is not disclosed.
