The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services intends to award using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (limitation of $100,000), a fixed priced purchase order at a fixed labor rate for an attorney with extensive experience in federal regulatory nursing home policy and thoroughly understands the federal certification process, laws, regulations, and the manner to which they are applied to maintain and update searchable databases and analyze hearing decisions by Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) and the Departmental Appeals Board (DSB). This is in relations to the nursing home enforcement system, and to provide a report summarizing all decisions for each month. The databases will be used by CMS to efficiently be able to review and evaluate all legal decisions. A purchase order award will be made within (15) business days after the response due date of this notice. The period of performance will be twelve months for the base year plus two option years. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 541110. A Statement of Work and Deliverables are attached.

For the purpose of establishing timely receipt of a quotation, the time will be established based upon the hard copy submission.
