Executive summary
medium confidencegpt 5.2
The Maryland Department of Human Services issued an expression of interest for “Licensed Child Placement Agency Per Diem Providers” under Agency Control Number SSA/CPA 18-001S. Responses are due December 19, 2016 at 3:30 PM EST. No files/attachments are available in the notice (“No files to display”), so the scope, response format, and evaluation approach are not visible from this brief. This reads as an interest-gauging step (not a fully formed solicitation) focused on per diem child placement services provided by licensed child placement agencies.
Licensed Child Placement AgencyPer diem providersSSA/CPA 18-001SMaryland Department of Human ServicesChild placement servicesExpression of Interest
What the buyer is trying to do
Identify and gauge the availability/capability of licensed child placement agencies that can provide per diem child placement services, likely to inform future procurement planning and/or establish a pool of providers under SSA/CPA 18-001S.
Who should pursue this
- Maryland-licensed Child Placement Agencies able to deliver per diem child placement services
- Organizations that can quickly assemble an expression-of-interest style response by the December 19, 2016 3:30 PM EST deadline
Work breakdown
- Provide per diem child placement agency services as a licensed Child Placement Agency provider (details not provided in the notice)
Response package checklist
- Cover letter referencing Agency Control Number SSA/CPA 18-001S and the title “Licensed Child Placement Agency Per Diem Providers”
- Proof of Child Placement Agency licensure (or clear statement of current license status and issuing authority)
- Capability statement specific to per diem child placement services (service model, capacity, and geographic coverage if applicable)
- Point of contact information for follow-up regarding the expression of interest
- Any requested submission format and delivery method (not provided in the brief; confirm with buyer)
More BidPulsar strategy notesCompliance, pricing, teaming, risks, questions, and coverage notes
Compliance notes
- Meet the stated due date/time: December 19, 2016 at 3:30 PM EST
- Ensure the response clearly ties to SSA/CPA 18-001S to avoid misrouting
- No attachments are available in the notice; confirm whether there are instructions hosted elsewhere or distributed separately
Pricing strategy
- Because this is an expression of interest with no visible scope, avoid firm pricing commitments unless the buyer explicitly requests rate information; if asked, provide a concise per diem rate structure with assumptions clearly stated and aligned to licensure/service requirements.
Teaming and subs
- If licensure is required at the prime level, consider teaming only with entities that complement service delivery (e.g., specialized support services), while keeping the licensed Child Placement Agency as the lead respondent
Risks and watchouts
- Missing solicitation documents: the notice shows “Loading No files to display,” creating uncertainty about required response format, submission method, and exact service expectations
- Licensure risk: responding without clearly demonstrating Child Placement Agency licensure may result in non-consideration
- Scope ambiguity: “Per Diem Providers” could imply rate-based service delivery, but the definitions and requirements are not provided
Smart questions to ask
- Is this an Expression of Interest only, or will it result in an award/contract vehicle under SSA/CPA 18-001S?
- What is the required submission method (email, portal, physical delivery) and exact recipient/office for responses due December 19, 2016 3:30 PM EST?
- Are there specific geographic service areas within Maryland DHS’ needs for these per diem child placement providers?
- What minimum licensure, certifications, or compliance documentation must be included in the response?
- Will respondents be asked to submit per diem rate sheets, and if so, what cost elements and assumptions should be used?
Source coverage notes
Some notices publish limited source detail. Confirm these points before final bid/no-bid decisions.
- Submission instructions (delivery method, address/email/portal, required format)
- Statement of work/service requirements beyond “Licensed Child Placement Agency Per Diem Providers”
- Eligibility details (specific licensing requirements, geographic coverage expectations)
- Whether this EOI leads to a contract/award or a qualified provider list
- Any attachments/addenda referenced but not available in the notice
FAQ
How do I use the Market Snapshot?
It summarizes awarded-contract behavior for the opportunity’s NAICS and sector, including a recent pricing band (P10–P90), momentum, and composition. Use it as context, not a guarantee.
Is the data live?
The signal updates as new awarded notices enter the system. Always validate the official award and solicitation details on SAM.gov.
What do P10 and P90 mean?
P10 is the 10th percentile award size and P90 is the 90th percentile. Together they describe the typical spread of award values.
