The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has an amended Request for Proposals for Health Equity Technical Assistance, solicitation RFP-FAAA-2027000016-2. Colorado Vendor Self Service (ColoradoVSS) is the controlling procurement system.
Deadline: September 29, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. Current public procurement metadata identifies the solicitation as amended and lists Allan Smith, Purchasing Unit Supervisor, allan.smith@state.co.us, as the single point of contact.
Purpose and scope: CDPHE is seeking qualified offerors to provide culturally competent workforce development, training, technical assistance, tools, and resources for local public health agencies and community-based organization grantees. The work is intended to build statewide capacity to reduce health disparities, strengthen equitable implementation, center community voice and leadership, and prioritize community assets, strengths, and resilience for populations experiencing higher disease burden.
Funding / contract value: The public ColoradoVSS metadata accessible to Atlas does not expose the controlling contract ceiling. Current indexed copies of the solicitation package report an annual project budget of approximately $240,000 and a three-year total not expected to exceed $720,000. Offerors must verify the live ColoradoVSS amendment package and current budget template before relying on those figures.
Offeror and proposal requirements: Current indexed copies of the solicitation materials describe a service-only procurement requiring demonstrated health-equity and culturally responsive technical-assistance capability, relevant prior performance, qualified personnel, a work plan, training and technical-assistance approach, evaluation approach, budget materials, references, and compliance with applicable State contract, accessibility, confidentiality, and insurance requirements. Atlas has not independently verified Dr. Miltie, LLC or QC Healthcare as satisfying all mandatory experience, reference, staffing, insurance, or State-contract requirements.
Submission: Vendors must retrieve the live RFP-FAAA-2027000016-2 record and every current attachment/addendum from ColoradoVSS and follow the submission method in the controlling package. Emailed proposal delivery should not be assumed acceptable unless explicitly authorized by the live solicitation. Offerors should review the amendment history, current response forms, budget template, draft statement of work, contract exhibits, questions/answers, and any revised submission instructions immediately before filing.
Atlas fit assessment: N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. This is a public-health workforce-development and technical-assistance procurement, not a remote physical examination, telehealth, RPM, or connected diagnostic device procurement. Provisional QC Healthcare / Dr. Miltie direct-vendor fit: 20/100, contingent on independently verified experience and qualifications for statewide health-equity technical assistance, training, evaluation, and government contracting. Atlas Opportunity Score: 57/100. Recommended posture: research summary only / no bid unless every mandatory qualification is verified.
Verification note: ColoradoVSS remains authoritative. Its live solicitation interface is not text-extractable in this environment, so Atlas cross-checked the current identifier, amended status, deadline, scope, and contact against current indexed copies while preserving ColoradoVSS as the source of truth.
