Contracts & Procurement Opportunities
Requests for Proposals and/or Requests for Information to provide services or operate programs to meet DHHS needs.
The Contracts Unit exists to create agreements that:
- Are legally binding;
- Are compliant with state and federal law;
- Clearly describe the services to be provided; and
- Hold the vendor accountable to provide those services.
Vendor Notices
- All contracts, grants, and other awards are effective only upon approval of the Governor and Executive Council. Services or goods should not be provided on behalf of the Department of Health and Human Services, under any circumstances, in advance of Governor and Executive Council approval. If the Governor and Executive Council rejects a contract, grant, or other award, then the agreement is not effective and the Contractor cannot be paid for any services or goods provided.
- The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) made updates to 2 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 200 which establishes administrative requirements, cost principles, and audit requirements for all Federal financial assistance. The updates, known as the Uniform Grants Guidance 2024 Revision, apply to awards made on or after October 1, 2024. It is important that subrecipient contractors receiving federal funds are aware of the changes and how they could affect your subrecipient agreement.
