Opportunity Overview
The Utah Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Aging and Adult Services, Adult Protective Services is accepting applications under DHHS91199 Emergency Placement Short-Term Shelter. The Invitation for Applications seeks qualified providers able to furnish short-term shelter to eligible APS clients.
Deadline and Contract Structure
The current DHHS purchasing page lists DHHS91199 as an open procurement and does not publish a fixed application deadline. Applications are submitted by email according to the IFA instructions. Do not submit applications through U3P. Questions and any controlling addenda are handled through the U3P Q&A process.
Qualification Paths
The current evaluator score sheet uses pass/fail qualification criteria. Assisted-living or skilled-nursing applicants must maintain and submit a current Utah license for an Assisted Living Facility Type I, Assisted Living Facility Type II, or Skilled Nursing Facility. Hotel/motel lodging applicants must submit a current business license issued by their city of operation and a statement showing understanding of issues affecting aging people and people with disabilities plus relevant experience working with agencies or organizations serving those populations.
Required Submission Materials
The score sheet identifies four required documents: the completed DHHS Data Sheet, completed and signed Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement, a W-9 completed in the applicant’s legal name and signed and dated within six months of submission, and the completed Service Application. Applicants should also review the current scope, client-service terms, established rates, award list, and U3P Q&A before filing.
Funding and Payment
DHHS publishes established rates for this contract, but the accessible public landing page does not state a total program funding pool, universal contract ceiling, or guaranteed utilization. Atlas therefore does not infer any of those values. Provider pricing should be handled only as directed by the controlling IFA and current rate table.
Existing Vendor Capacity
The current DHHS award list identifies Haven of Grace Residence, LLC as an approved provider for Assisted Living Facility Services. Atlas treats that incumbent status as evidence of an established vendor pool rather than a reason to duplicate outreach.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 74/100. This is a legitimate evergreen Utah health-and-human-services contracting pathway for licensed shelter, assisted-living, skilled-nursing, and qualifying lodging providers serving vulnerable adults.
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. The procurement buys short-term emergency shelter and related facility services. It does not establish a remote physical-examination, telehealth, or medical-device procurement pathway. Dr. Miltie direct pursuit is therefore No Bid under the verified scope.
