About this file

This is a spreadsheet template and Q&A document for responses to an RFI from the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service regarding research on administering social benefits through the tax system. The document contains two main sections: Part I (Company Profile) which requests basic vendor information including company details, POCs, NAICS codes, contract vehicles, and socioeconomic status; and Part II (Technical Capability) which is a response matrix for technical questions.

The Q&A section clarifies that the RFI response deadline has been extended to January 30, 2025 at 10am EST. The period of performance will be one year after Notice to Proceed. Several questions about team structure, labor categories, expertise levels, and pricing were deferred back to industry respondents to propose their approaches. The government confirmed that delivery is not dependent on hiring staff, subcontracting, timing of TAS data, or purchase of software/equipment. Respondents must complete all tabs in the spreadsheet or convert to PDF format.
