RFPs
As we build a central health coverage marketplace for Minnesotans, we may identify the need for outside expertise in a particular area. In some instances we will solicit a contractor through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. All RFPs will be posted here and at the State Register.
To ensure a level playing field for all interested parties, staff cannot converse with prospective vendors in advance by phone, nor meet in person.
