Accessing undocumented APIs from big companies is fun. Especially if you get loads of data to store and analyze from them. Even more though, if that data bears humiliating evidence.
When you fetch half a million records per day from a well known railroad company, it's many power, much Bahn, so data. And it only gets better, the more you play with that data.
Buried between the first and last station of many railway tracks lies priceless data for customers and competitors... or better: this is our bucket of gold at the end of the rainbow, with just a bit less magic.
Where are the most delays? Will I catch the next train? Who is the driver of the Hogwarts Express and how do I get to platform nine and three quarters without hurting me while running against a wall?
We have the answers for all these questions. Well, for most of them.

Presentation to the National Council of Nonprofits Contracting Best Practices...Laurel O'Sullivan

Provider directory accuracy is critical to ensuring consumers get the care they need from the right doctors. The challenge is the rate at which provider data changes and getting that information into the hands of members. Now regulatory bodies are demanding health insurers put processes in place that ensure the information they collect and publish to their member populations is current and complete. Updating mandatory data fields like address, acceptance of new patients, specialty, languages spoken and more can become overwhelming for a health plan – putting a strain on resources. LexisNexis explores where regulations stand, the nature of provider data and why maintaining it is a challenge, and a proven approach to managing your provider data and directories.

Investigate the overlap of the revised FEMA floodplains and park scarcity in New York City and look to identify areas that can help mitigate each issue. The motivation for this project starts with New York State’s buyout program that is meant to target at risk homes for flooding and reclaim the land as open space. This open space can then be used for either parkland or as an extension of existing wetland restoration projects to increase both biodiversity and livability for residents.

3. 2HHS Accelerator Data Provider Report
Client and Community Service (CCS) providers deliver vital services to New York City
residents in need through thousands of contracts administered by the City of New York
annually. The HHS Accelerator team has been dedicated to improving the business
relationship between providers and City Agencies through:
• Collaboration with City Agencies to standardize and simplify Requests for
Proposals (RFPs);
• A prequalification process where providers only need to share their basic
organizational profile and submit critical background documents once every
three years;
• Electronic issuance of Request for Proposals (RFPs) and paperless submission
of proposals;
• Electronic submission of budgets and invoices;
• Consolidated view of human services contract financial data and provider activity;
• Increased transparency for providers and Agencies, allowing providers to track
the status of all procurements, proposals, contracts, budgets, invoices, payments
and amendments in the system.
HHS Accelerator Data
In addition to facilitating these operational benefits, HHS Accelerator is a service
organization committed to providing support to its users and stakeholders. The HHS
Accelerator Data initiative (started in 2011, originally called “HS Data”) strives to
strengthen the Client and Community Service sector by offering reports to increase
accessibility and understanding of financial and performance data. Historically,
information reporting has flowed mostly one-way, from contracted service providers to
their funding City Agencies. The goal of HHS Accelerator Data is to give data back so
providers can gain perspective on their Accelerator activity and the overarching Client
and Community Service contracting landscape, starting with the following report.
This report includes HHS Accelerator prequalification, procurement and financial data
from the launch of HHS Accelerator in Fall 2013 to Summer 2015.

7. 6HHS Accelerator Data Provider Report
During the prequalification process, providers fill out a two-part application, including a
Business Application that asks for information about the organization’s mission, filings,
board and executive leadership, and financial and internal control policies; and a Service
Application that asks for information on services the organization is capable of
delivering. This section highlights the data reported by providers during this process.
Services Delivered
Providers can only compete for an RFP if they are prequalified in at least one of the
services listed in the funding opportunity. Below is a list of the services with the most and

Procurement Cycle Times
When an RFP is released in HHS Accelerator, prequalified providers are given a
generous amount of time to review the RFP, attend the Pre-Proposal Conference,
review any Addenda and submit proposals in the system. On the proposal due date,
the Agency closes the procurement from future submissions. The Agency then reviews
the proposals, scores them and determines which proposals will be selected for award.
At this point, providers will be notified if their proposal has been selected for award.

Conclusion
Since the launch of the HHS Accelerator System in 2013, we've grown to serve more
than 7,000 users, 1,854 prequalified providers across the City and released over 93
Request for Proposals (RFPs). In the past year, the value of contract budgets managed
in HHS Accelerator Financials has doubled to over $1.2 billion. As system users, funding
opportunities, and contract budgets managed in HHS Accelerator continue to grow, we
are committed to continue to provide high quality customer support, help improve
process cycle times, and reduce administrative burden wherever we can.
As you well know, New York City’s provider community is vital to the wellbeing of
millions of people across the five boroughs, especially its most vulnerable residents, and
having more resources devoted to mission-critical services is of the utmost
importance. HHS Accelerator was launched to reengineer, standardize, simplify, and
speed contracting processes to allow providers to focus on providing service to the City
residents that depend on them. Through technology, a strong devotion to customer
service, and an understanding of the relationship between the City and the provider
community, the HHS Accelerator team hopes to continue to identify more opportunities
to build upon this foundational effort.
This report is designed to provide insight for your organization and to help promote the
ongoing review of data across the Client and Community Service sector. The HHS
Accelerator provider profile information and activity to date found in this report can be
used as a benchmark, and provides an opportunity to reflect on your own organizational
data. We strongly encourage you to provide feedback on the information contained in
this report and share your thoughts on additional data that you would find useful. Please
submit questions, comments and additional requests for reports and data to the
Accelerator Help Desk at info@hhsaccelerator.nyc.gov.
