Office of Workers Compensation Program

The Department of Labor Office of Workers Compensation Program, a civilian sub-agency within the Department of Labor, administers federal contracts supporting the workers' compensation system, including medical services, data management, and administrative support functions. The Office has executed 388 federal contract awards totaling $1.86 billion in combined potential value since 2008, with $722.1 million obligated to date.

Contract activity has remained modest and variable over the last five years: 12 awards in 2022, 17 in 2023, 14 in 2024, 6 in 2025, and 12 year-to-date in 2026. The most recent award closed on 2026-09-30. The Office engages 158 distinct prime contractors across its portfolio, indicating a highly fragmented competitive environment. By award count over the last five years, the top five primes (Talu LLC, Heritage Interiors LLC, Conduent Federal Solutions LLC, Paragon Technical Services Inc., and CRC Holdings Inc.) account for 33 percent of recent awards, with Talu LLC leading at 7 awards despite modest combined potential value of $395 thousand. By potential value, concentration is minimal: the top five primes hold only 14 percent of combined potential value, with QTC Medical Services Inc. and Paragon Technical Services Inc. each representing around $85 million to $97.9 million in potential value. This value-count divergence reflects the Office's mix of high-dollar medical and data-systems contracts alongside numerous smaller administrative awards.

The set-aside mix is dominated by unrestricted competition: 85 percent of awards carry no set-aside designation. Small business set-asides account for 8 percent of awards, while 8(a) awards (sole source and competitive combined) represent 7 percent. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and HUBZone designations are minimal, each appearing in fewer than 2 percent of awards.

No recent federal grant opportunities are recorded against the Office. No recent federal contract opportunities are on file in the source data. Prospective bidders should monitor the Office's solicitation channels directly for open contract vehicles supporting medical examination services, claims management platforms, and administrative IT support — areas where recent awards suggest active procurement activity.
