Sole Source solicitation for purchase of access to Quest Analytics' platform

Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) Office of Contracts & Procurement, on behalf of the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) Medicaid Division, issued a sole-source notice for access to Quest Analytics' Quest Enterprise Services Advanced Compliance Oversight platform, with a response date of October 26, 2026, which has passed. The notice is posted on OregonBuys and rests on a determination that Quest Analytics' platform is the only available source meeting the agency's requirements under ORS 279B.075, with supporting documentation in the market research file.

The platform supports state oversight of Coordinated Care Organization (CCO) provider networks: regulatory oversight, standards enforcement, network performance assessment, scenario modeling, and development of new standards. Described capabilities include customizable network adequacy templates, exception workflow management, provider network scenario modeling, integration of membership and census data, geographic visualization, network comparisons, and claims-based analysis to identify ghost providers and performance indicators. The software will support up to 40 network reviews per year.

The estimated total contract value is $1.01 million over five years. The determination names Quest Analytics, LLC of Overland Park, Kansas, with contact Patti Schnieder.

The procurement responds to staffing losses in OHA's Performance Analytics Team, where visa-dependent data analysts departed and only two OPA 3-level staff remain to handle federal Medicaid compliance obligations in network adequacy, care coordination, and grievance and appeal monitoring. OHA intends to reallocate existing staff to federal compliance risks and other oversight duties once the platform is in place.

Protests must be filed within seven calendar days after the notice is first posted on OregonBuys.
