Language has been added to outline transition roles and support in order to assist the State as it plans to assume Road Home responsibilities once the contract with ICF ends:

Contractor will provide assistance in facilitating and effecting an orderly transition to the State of the Road Home systems by providing access to key personnel, support, documentation and training for system inputs, outputs, applications, and processes on specific equipment, networks, software solutions and applications. Contractor will provide work space, as available, in Road Home facilities for the OCD transition team. Contractor will provide assistance to OCD in coordinating transition issues with the Road Home IT subcontractors. Contractor will also assist with the relocation of pertinent files, documents, software, and equipment. A list of key action

Finally, the State names Paul Rainwater as State Program Manager, replacing Suzie Elkins.
