Update: More awardees named to $5 Billion CMS Research, Measurement, Assessment, Design, & Analysis (RMADA) 2 IDIQ

Updated January 30, 2020 

G2X TAKE: Sometimes protests do pay off. Months after the initial 17 awardees were announced and several protests were subsequently filed with GAO, it appears some of the concerns were heard as three new firms were announced yesterday as being added to the list of awardees for this critical and proven IDIQ in support of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.  

The new awardees added to the list include: 

• Acumen
• Westat 
• Customer Value Partners (CVP) 

Details on the protests filed after the original award last Fall are available here. 

Congratulations once again to all of the winners. Now comes the hard part. Winning the all-important tasks.
