Pennie Contact Center Consultant Support
|
|
Description:
|
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has fundamentally transformed the health insurance landscape, demanding increases in accessibility, operational resilience, and customer experience through state-based exchanges (SBEs). Pennie, the SBE for Pennsylvania, is undertaking a major operational shift: moving from a vendor-operated contact center model to one internally operated. This transition requires sophisticated planning, execution, workforce transformation, and continuous alignment with evolving Federal and State requirements. To maximize the success of this critical endeavor, Pennie seeks a consulting partner with deep expertise in contact center transitions, government operations, and health insurance customer support, preferably with ACA exchange experience.
The Department of General Services (DGS) Small Diverse Business (SDB) and Veteran Business Enterprise (VBE) program apply to this procurement. There is an SDB Goal of 14% and a VBE Goal of 3% established for this procurement.
