Rural Health Transformation Program Evaluation Service

The Maine government authority requires a vendor to provide a rural health transformation program evaluation service. The buyer needs the vendor to leverage state partners, rural health subject matter experts, and key interest holders to identify opportunities for in-depth evaluation. The selected vendor must engage the department's staff and key interest holders to refine evaluation priorities, questions, goals, and objectives. Within 120 days of the start of the initial performance period, the vendor must develop a Data Collection Plan that minimizes duplicate monitoring activities and uses existing partner expertise. Additional scope includes designing and implementing qualitative and quantitative data collection, analyzing data using appropriate methods, and identifying promising practices, strategies, partnerships, financing approaches, and scalable activities. To qualify, eligible vendors must be an onshore USA organization. The buyer requires onsite performance of the work. The buyer is looking for proposals regarding the budget and provides no further details on evaluation criteria or key dates.
