Notice Special Procurement: OHA OEBB Contract extension

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) and Department of Administrative Services Procurement Services (DAS PS) are seeking a special procurement to extend an existing contract with Perspecta State and Local, Inc. for the MyOEBB Benefit Management System (BMS). The procurement involves a three-year contract extension through June 30, 2025, focusing on maintenance, operational support, and system enhancements. The primary objective is to provide continued technological support for the OEBB benefits platform, with specific emphasis on maintaining the current system while preparing for a future combined solution that will integrate OEBB and the Public Employees Benefit Board (PEBB). The contract extension requires comprehensive maintenance and operational support services, including system upgrades and technical enhancements. The procurement was posted on September 23, 2021, with a response deadline of September 30, 2021. Key deliverables include ongoing system maintenance, technical support, and implementation of system enhancements that will facilitate the eventual integration of multiple benefit management platforms.

The special procurement does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The incumbent vendor is Perspecta State and Local, Inc., which will continue to provide services under the extended contract. The total estimated contract value is $5,941,272, with a precise breakdown of $4,441,272 allocated for maintenance and support costs, and $1,500,000 designated for work orders, modernization, and enhancement activities. The existing technological infrastructure involves the MyOEBB Benefit Management System, which requires continued support and incremental improvements. OHA will closely track and monitor expenditures, ensuring strict adherence to the allocated budget categories. The contract extension is strategically designed to provide continuity of services while the agencies develop a comprehensive plan to merge the OEBB and PEBB benefit management platforms into a unified solution.
