Estate Recovery

The State of Tennessee, through the Department of Finance and Administration's Division of TennCare, is soliciting proposals for Estate Recovery Services via Request for Proposal (RFP 31865-00657). This procurement requires potential service providers to execute a non-disclosure agreement before accessing detailed solicitation documents, reflecting the confidential nature of the data protected under Tennessee Code Annotated 10-7-504(i). The proposal response deadline is set for June 23, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. CST, with a unique pre-qualification process that mandates suppliers complete registration to do business with the state, which can take approximately 10-14 days. Interested vendors must submit the required non-disclosure agreement to the Solicitation Coordinator, Donovan Morgan, before gaining full access to the solicitation details. The estate recovery services will likely involve complex data management, confidential information handling, and potentially legal recovery processes related to estate assets, though specific deliverables are not explicitly detailed in the available documentation.

The solicitation appears to have strict confidentiality requirements, with the non-disclosure agreement providing extensive protections for Confidential State Data, including electronic systems, security information, and vulnerability details. While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are mentioned, the procurement process emphasizes rigorous data protection protocols. The agreement is governed by Tennessee law, with potential dispute resolution through the Tennessee Claims Commission or state/federal courts. Suppliers must commit to safeguarding confidential information, limiting disclosure to necessary employees who have signed equivalent non-disclosure agreements, and destroying confidential data according to National Institute of Standards and Technology guidelines upon contract termination. No specific award value or budget range is provided in the current documentation, and no incumbent vendors are identified. Potential respondents should be prepared for a complex procurement process that prioritizes data security and confidentiality.
