Required next actionVerification hold. Official Montana eMACS public event PDF reverified September 19, 2026. This is an Intent to Sole Source for Baker Tilly ongoing support in the Department of Administration Healthcare and Benefits Division, closing October 1, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. The public export states this is not a request for competitive proposals and requires any interested alternate vendor to submit a thorough, detailed written response explaining how it can provide the services in the Letter of Intent attached to required Question 1.2. The Letter of Intent itself is not exposed in the public export. Keep draft/unscored and do not classify Dr. Miltie as a viable challenger, create CRM records, outreach, or prepare a response until the Letter of Intent, current Q&A, and amendments are reviewed.
Broad Eligibility
Potential alternate vendors must be able to provide equivalent services meeting the controlling Letter of Intent requirements and submit a detailed written response through the event. Complete service requirements and qualifications must be verified from the Letter of Intent before Atlas classifies a viable respondent.
Atlas Analysis
Reverified September 19, 2026 from the official Montana eMACS event PDF. Baker Tilly Ongoing Support, DOA-SolSour-2027-0240MQB, is open September 18 through October 1, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. The Department of Administration Healthcare and Benefits Division is considering a sole-source award to Baker Tilly. The notice explicitly says it is not a request for competitive proposals, but alternate vendors may submit a detailed equivalency response. Required Question 1.2 directs challengers to explain how they can provide all services in a Letter of Intent attached to that question. The Letter of Intent is not present in the public export, so service scope, qualifications, and a legitimate Dr. Miltie direct-vendor path cannot yet be established. Keep unpublished and unscored pending that controlling document, current Q&A, and amendments.
