Atlas assessment
Atlas Grant Fit Score: 96/100
Strong Hawaiʻi applicant example: HOPE Services Hawaii, 99/100, based on its Hawaiʻi Island homeless-services, shelter, street-medicine, medical-respite, and Kona-area operating history.
N9+ Fit Score: 30/100 — potentially relevant only as a secondary support tool if the full RFP permits the cost and the selected service model includes eligible onsite clinical services.
QC Healthcare Fit: 35/100
Dr. Miltie prime/direct bidder: No, because the required shelter/resource-center operating experience is not established.
