What this contract is for

Agency: LABOR, DEPARTMENT OF / OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT
Location: WASHINGTON, DC
Set-aside: No Set aside used
NAICS: 513210 - Software Publishers
Scope: Federal

Purpose The U.S.

Department of Labor (DOL) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 10, Market Research, to identify commercially available platforms that can support DOL’s efforts to improve labor market transparency, workforce identity verification, employment compliance, and detection of potential fraud and unlawful labor practices.

The information received will assist the Government in understanding industry capabilities, refining requirements, assessing risks, and developing an appropriate acquisition strategy consistent with applicable procurement laws and regulations.

This RFI is for planning and market research purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation, request for proposal, request for quote, or an obligation on the part of the Government to acquire any supplies or services.

Project Overview DOL is exploring commercially available digital workforce identity and compliance platforms that can provide secure, verifiable data to improve labor market transparency and identify indicators of potential fraud.

Specifically, DOL seeks solutions offering trusted identity verification and work authorization status for workers, portable digital credentials (e.g., certifications, training and licensing records) that workers can share with employers or regulators, and electronic records of key compliance activities (such as wage payments, safety training completion, housing and transportation inspections, and worksite assignments) to support employers in meeting labor standards.

The ideal platform will generate audit-ready logs and reports of employment and compliance data, use data analytics to flag potential fraud, document inconsistencies, or unlawful labor practices...

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
