SS9743 FORM FOR NEWSPAPER ADVERTISEMENT_REVISED.docx

This is a sole source certification request form for a physician scheduling platform renewal submitted by the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC). The request concerns the renewal of QGenda, a centralized scheduling platform that provides physicians and residents with mobile access to call, work, and rotation schedules while enabling immediate alerts to parties affected by scheduling changes. The platform manages physician and resident call schedules across the organization. The RFx number is 3150006980, and responses will be received at UMMC's Jackson, Mississippi location at 2500 North State Street. Objections to the sole source certification request must be submitted by August 31, 2026 at 3:00 PM Central Time. Questions regarding the certification request and objection procedures should be directed to solesource@umc.edu, and additional information about the certification request and objection procedures is available through the Mississippi Procurement Portal website.

The request identifies QGenda as the incumbent system for physician scheduling and call management functions at UMMC. This sole source renewal indicates that UMMC has determined QGenda to be the only platform capable of meeting the organization's specific scheduling and notification requirements, suggesting that system continuity and established integration with existing UMMC operations justify the single-source approach rather than competitive bidding.
