What this contract is for

Agency: City of Norfolk - Healthcare Consortium
Location: Norfolk, VA
Scope: State & Local

The City of Norfolk ("City"), on behalf of the City, Norfolk Public Schools ("NPS"), and Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority ("NRHA"), hereafter collectively referred to as the "Consortium" or "NHC", is seeking to procure medical plan administration services and pharmacy benefit management services for the Consortium employees, pre-65 retirees and their qualified dependents for a five (5) year period beginning January 1, 2028 through December 31, 2032, with the possibility of one (1) additional five-year renewal. The Consortium prefers a carved-in approach to these benefits to ensure ease of administration, capture bundled pricing considerations, and avoid disjointed reporting, however, it will consider separate proposals for medical and pharmacy services if, in its sole discretion, the Consortium determines that separate proposals provide the best value to the Consortium. In addition to the self-insured services, the Consortium is also seeking fully insured proposals for medical and pharmacy with plans similar to its current offerings. Offerors may, but are not required to, submit proposals for multiple service areas covered by this solicitation. If an offeror submits proposals for multiple service areas, separate proposals must be submitted under each service area in OpenGov. NOTE: ***Please visit Project Details section under the Project Documents for links to submit proposal for each service area.***

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
