These quality measures are for Quality Improvement Organizations (QIO) initiatives and many of its quality reporting, public reporting, and value-based purchasing programs. �Under the authority of FAR 6.301-1 10 U.S.C. 2304, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies and Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.� A justification and approval is currently being processed for this requirement. This requirement is intended as a sole source procurement because the NQF membership is solely owned by this entity. ��� CMS REQUIREMENTS: The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services needs to acquire membership status with NQF.

In order to qualify as a potential contractor for this procurement, the organization must provide technical literature describing their capability to effectively satisfy this requirement, as well as terms and conditions and a complete price quote within 15 days of this notice, to the following electronic mail address: phillip.harrell@cms.hhs.gov. DISCLAIMER: This notice is not a Request for Proposals or a Solicitation, nor does it restrict the Government as to the ultimate acquisition approach.� This notice is not a commitment from the Government. The Government will not reimburse any bid or proposal costs as a result of this notice.� No solicitation exists and requests for a copy of the solicitation will be disregarded.� However, any future solicitation that will be open to competition will be subsequently issued on Beta.Sam.Gov in order to permit firms to respond.
