Summary:
The State of Alaska, Department of Health (DOH), Division of Senior and Disabilities Services (SDS), Early Intervention/Infant Learning Program (State ILP) is soliciting proposals from qualified vendors regarding the development of a grantee funding formula methodology.
Please see attached for further detail.
This notice governs the ownership, return, and disclosure of any offer or other record an offeror submits in response to this request for proposals. (Herein, any reference to “Record” includes all such records and the offer; any reference to “Law” includes any federal or State of Alaska (State) law, including any court or administrative order or rule.)
1. All Records belong to the State.
2. The State has sole discretion regarding whether to return any Record. In exercising this discretion, the State will comply with all Laws.
3. Unless a notice of intent to award is issued, the State will, to the extent permitted by Law, consider all Records confidential and not subject to the Alaska Public Records Act (APRA).
4. If, and when a notice of intent to award is issued, the State will consider nonconfidential any Record unless, at the time of submission, the offeror undertook the following protective measures:
a. Marked information confidential;
b. For any information marked confidential, identified the authority that makes that specific information confidential; and
c. Committed, in writing, to explain in detail, including with affidavits and briefs, why each authority applies in any court or administrative proceeding in which any nondisclosure is challenged.
5. If the offeror did not undertake each protective measure, the State will not consider any information in a Record confidential: the State will disclose the entire Record without any redaction in response to an APRA or other request or, if it chooses, in the absence of a request and the State will disclose the entire Record without notifying the bidder.
6. If the offeror undertook each protective measure, the State will withhold the information marked confidential to the following extent:
a. The State agrees that the Law protects the information; and
b. If the nondisclosure is challenged, the offeror fulfills its commitment to explain, including with affidavits and briefs, how each authority applies to the information marked confidential.
7. The State will only notify an offeror of a request for the Record and of a planned release if the offeror undertook each protective measure, but the State disagrees that the marked information is protected. If there is such a disagreement, then before releasing the Record, the State will, to the extent permitted by Law and practicable, notify the offeror that it will disclose the information unless the offeror convinces the State not to or obtains an order prohibiting disclosure
The contractor will collect and analyze data to support an equitable funding formula across the 15 current ILP programs, considering Alaska's unique geographical and regional complexities and ILP funding sources such as Federal Part C funding, AK State General Funds, Medicaid, and Private Insurance. The contractor will ensure multiple opportunities for stakeholder input and make appropriate revisions based on input. The successful offeror will submit a funding formula methodology report and spreadsheet describing the rationale and data sources for the funding formula, and will provide a guidance document and support to the ILP State team to implement the funding formula.

Most Alaska work asks for the two below, and the solicitation documents are where it’s stated. One prequalification covers both — on this bid and the next.
A surety’s written statement that it expects to bond you up to a stated amount, subject to final underwriting. It’s what an agency asks to see before they take your bid seriously.
