Federal Agency: Army Office: Army Contracting Command-Red River Army Depot (ACC-RRAD) AoI Title: Solutions for Supplemental Labor Management CSO AoI Number: A008 AoI Release Date: 9 FEB 2026 Responses: See CSO W911RQ-26-S-C001 for Procedure Details

1. General Information

1.1 Introduction

This announcement is for a Supplemental Labor Management Area of Interest (AoI) under the ACC- RRAD Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) W911RQ-26-S-C001 and IAW Section 1823 of the Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26) Modifications to Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO). Interested parties are highly encouraged to visit SAM.gov to review the ACC-RRAD CSO special posting in its entirety to obtain more information on the process for submission and evaluation of CSO AoI Responses. This CSO AoI seeks to solicit commercial solutions that meet the objectives detailed in Sections 1.2 and 1.3.

1.2 AoI Background

TACOM has directed Red River Army Depot (RRAD), Sierra Army Depot (SIAD), Anniston Army Depot (ANAD), and Watervliet Arsenal (WVA) to address fluctuating (aka surge) labor demands across the Army's Organic Industrial Base (OIB). Currently, this is managed through multiple, fragmented contracts for labor at individual depots and arsenals. The Army seeks to consolidate these requirements to standardize labor practices, reduce administrative overhead and duplication, and improve overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness. This AoI is seeking commercial solutions that can provide a centralized, efficient, and agile approach to managing this supplemental workforce.

1.3 Desired Capabilities & Areas of Interest

ACC-RRAD is interested in a commercial solution for the management and fulfillment of supplemental labor requirements that will improve upon the current fragmented process. The Government is seeking solutions beyond traditional staff augmentation services. At a minimum, the proposed solution should address the following objectives IAW Appendix 01 (PWS) of this AOI:

• Centralized Management: A solution to manage the sourcing, onboarding, and administration of supplemental labor across multiple geographically dispersed OIB facilities.

• Workforce Agility: An ability to rapidly source, vet, and deploy skilled personnel to meet fluctuating surge labor demands equipment maintenance, repair, and related services.

• Standardization: A method to standardize labor categories, skill requirements, and performance metrics across different depots and arsenals.

• Process Efficiency: A streamlined solution that reduces administrative overhead for both the Government and the contractor. This may include new approaches to timekeeping, invoicing, and reporting.

• Data & Analytics: The ability to provide real-time visibility into the supplemental workforce, including skill inventories, personnel status, project allocation, and overall cost. The solution should provide data analytics to support better forecasting and decision-making.

• Talent Sourcing & Retention: Strategies for attracting and retaining skilled trades and technical personnel in a competitive labor market.

2. AoI Constraints Any selected company/companies will be required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) prior to award.

3. Submission Requirements A written solution brief must be sent via e-mail submission by 5:00 P.M. (CDT) on 25 Feb 2026, with the subject line stating SOLUTION for Supplemental Labor AoI A008 to usarmy.rrad.acc.mbx.cso@army.mil

Solution briefs must conform to the requirements outlined in Section 3.2 of the master CSO solicitation

W911RQ-26-S-C001.
