Verification Hold — official event open; controlling question attachments require eMACS vendor login
Montana DPHHS Healthy Montana Families RFP — DPHHS-RFP-2027-0702MQB
New Montana DPHHS procurement for voluntary, evidence-based, family-centered home visiting services for expectant parents and families with infants and young children. Official eMACS register closes October 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. Publication and outreach remain blocked pending review of the authenticated controlling solicitation attachments.
FundingNot verified. The official public eMACS event export shows a single P1 'Lump Sum Total' line with quantity 42,350,000 and UOM 'LS - Lump Sum,' but it does not identify that figure as a contract ceiling, available funding, or guaranteed award amount. Atlas will not infer a funding value from that field.

Required next actionVerification hold. The official Montana eMACS public event and current event PDF confirm the October 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT close and the mandatory upload set: Business Information, Specifications/Scope, Cost Proposal, Offeror Qualifications, Attachment B Budget, Attachment L Funding Formula, Attachment O Staff Calculator and Caseload Guidance, Attachment P Staffing Plan, and Attachment Q Workplan. Federal UEI/SAM registration and NDAA 889 are also required. The event detail itself redirects to vendor login for the controlling question attachments, so before publication, scoring, direct-vendor classification, CRM creation, outreach, or package production, retrieve and review those attachments plus current Q&A/amendments and Schedule of Events. Do not treat the public P1 line-item quantity as a funding ceiling.
Broad Eligibility

Complete bidder qualifications and submission requirements remain inside the authenticated eMACS sourcing event.
Atlas Analysis
Reverified September 19, 2026 from the official Montana eMACS open-bid register and its current public event PDF (event 1443022). Healthy Montana Families, DPHHS-RFP-2027-0702MQB, is open and sealed until October 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT and seeks voluntary, evidence-based, family-centered home visiting services for expectant parents and families with infants and young children. The public event PDF confirms mandatory uploads for Business Information, Specifications/Scope, Cost Proposal, Offeror Qualifications, Budget, Funding Formula, Staff Calculator/Caseload Guidance, Staffing Plan, and Workplan, along with federal UEI/SAM and NDAA 889 requirements, financial stability, insurance, Secretary of State registration, debarment review, and other prerequisites. The controlling question attachments themselves remain behind eMACS vendor login. The public P1 Lump Sum Total line displays a quantity of 42,350,000 but does not define it as funding or a contract ceiling, so Atlas assigns no funding amount. Publication, scoring, direct-vendor classification, CRM creation, outreach, and package work remain blocked until the controlling attachments and current Q&A/amendments are reviewed.
Opportunity: Healthy Montana Families, DPHHS-RFP-2027-0702MQB.
Official public event status: The State of Montana eMACS public register lists this DPHHS RFP as open September 10, 2026 at 8:00 AM MDT through October 22, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. DPHHS is seeking proposals to provide voluntary, evidence-based, family-centered home visiting services to expectant parents and families with infants and young children.
Program context: Montana DPHHS describes Healthy Montana Families as its evidence-based home visiting program supporting maternal and child health, child development and school readiness, family well-being, positive parenting, and related outcomes.
Verification gate: The public eMACS register confirms the event number, open status, deadline, scope summary, and procurement contact, but the controlling event requires supplier login to inspect the complete Scope, Offeror Qualifications, Cost Proposal, budget/funding documents, staffing/workplan attachments, amendments, Q&A, certifications, match/cost-share treatment, and submission mechanics. Do not publish this record, begin applicant outreach, create applicant CRM work, or classify a Dr. Miltie direct path until those controlling attachments are reviewed. Do not infer contract value from third-party estimates.
Current Atlas assessment: Material maternal/child health relevance. N9+ device fit not established. Dr. Miltie direct-prime fit not established and should not be claimed without verified home-visiting model, staffing, organizational, and federal-program qualifications.
