236938 Public Health Services at the Local and Regional Level

This solicitation establishes a pre‑qualified master list of local and regional public‑health entities in Massachusetts and subsequently awards individual municipalities contracts to deliver a broad range of public‑health services (training, staffing, shared‑service arrangements, infrastructure upgrades, IT modernization, assessments, etc.). The contract is funded through future engagements, each negotiated as a separate quote, with payments made via electronic funds transfer. The agency anticipates a total procurement ceiling of $2.5 billion over the life of the program, with an initial five‑year term and two optional five‑year extensions. Multiple municipalities have already been named as awardees in intent‑to‑award notices. • Pre‑qualification creates a streamlined pathway for DPH funding to local, regional, and tribal health entities. • Scope includes capacity‑building, service delivery, and infrastructure support across a wide array of public‑health functions. • Funding is disbursed through subsequent RFQs/quotes; the master agreement functions as an IDIQ vehicle.
