Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) is soliciting proposals for RFP 26-R-250105 — Grants Management Lifecycle Assessment, Regulatory Gap Analysis, Risk Assessment Consulting Services, a professional-services procurement focused on strengthening ANTHC’s grants management environment across the full grant lifecycle.
Status: The response period has closed. Current public procurement listings tied to ANTHC’s Bonfire source show the final listed response deadline as September 16, 2026 at 2:00 PM AKDT, following a September 8 repost/update. The listed questions deadline was September 9, 2026 at 5:00 PM AKDT. ANTHC’s Bonfire opportunity is the controlling issuer source. The issuer portal blocked automated document retrieval during Atlas verification, so bidders should confirm the final deadline, amendments, addenda and submission requirements directly in Bonfire before responding.
Scope: Publicly indexed solicitation materials describe an end-to-end grants management lifecycle assessment covering opportunity identification through closeout; organizational structure and governance; grants systems and technology; policies, procedures and internal controls; federal grants compliance including 2 CFR Part 200; regulatory gap analysis; risk assessment; current-state process maps and RACI documentation; document inventory; stakeholder engagement; and actionable recommendations for improvement.
Anticipated performance: The indexed solicitation package describes an anticipated period of performance from October 14, 2026 through March 14, 2027, primarily from the consultant’s place of business with travel to Anchorage as needed.
Vendor qualifications: Publicly indexed solicitation materials state that the successful consultant must hold a valid Alaska Business License before award, have at least five years of relevant consulting experience, demonstrate three comparable engagements completed within the prior five years, and show federal grants compliance experience. The engagement lead is described as requiring at least seven years of relevant experience. The current Bonfire package controls and should be reviewed for all final qualification, reference, pricing, insurance, preference, certification and proposal-form requirements.
Contract value: Atlas did not find an authoritatively published contract ceiling or estimated value in accessible controlling materials and does not infer an amount.
Atlas assessment: Atlas Opportunity Score 86/100. N9+ Fit 0/100. Dr. Miltie / Atlas direct-vendor fit 68/100 conditional. This procurement aligns with grants research, compliance, workflow and package-development services, but it has no legitimate role for the Nonagon N9+ device and platform. Atlas has not established that Dr. Miltie or QC Healthcare can document every mandatory consulting-experience, comparable-engagement, engagement-lead, licensing and reference requirement. Accordingly, this is not classified as a confirmed direct-vendor pursuit and should not be submitted unless those qualifications are substantiated against the current Bonfire package.
