About this opportunity
The Department of Labor's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management is conducting market research through this Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential vendors capable of providing annual subscription services for auto insurance symbol grouping data. This data is essential for the Producer Price Index (PPI) to accurately calculate output-based price indexes for automobile and motor vehicle insurance, as the information is not available from public sector sources. The government requires detailed automobile information including model year, make, model, body type, VIN, symbol groups for comprehensive and collision coverage, price changes, and risk assessments to support quality adjustments in their pricing calculations. Potential vendors must submit capabilities packages limited to 30 pages by 5:00 PM EST on July 17, 2025, and responses will be evaluated as either "Relevant" or "Irrelevant" with possible follow-up demonstrations to a government panel of Subject Matter Experts. The government emphasizes this is not a request for proposals and no reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with responding to this announcement.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and will proceed under full and open competition, though the government is conducting market research to determine if future procurement should be set aside for small businesses. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the notice, and no specific award values or budget ranges are disclosed. The government indicates that multiple awards are possible and requests that any pricing information submitted should be Rough Order of Magnitude estimates for planning purposes only. The requirement involves an annual-refresh dataset, suggesting an ongoing subscription-based service model rather than a one-time delivery. The NAICS code 524126 for Direct Property and Casualty Insurance Carriers reflects the specialized nature of the insurance industry data being sought.
Notice text
SPECIAL NOTICE: SOURCES SOUGHT & REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI). THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. This notice does not represent a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract. The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for information received as a result of this announcement. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement and any follow-up information requests to include an invite to further explain/demonstrate aspects of their proposed approach. Requests for a solicitation will not receive a response. Information provided in response to this RFI is submitted voluntarily and is not being requested as part of a solicitation for actual pricing.
To continue producing accurate output-based price indexes for automobile and motor vehicle insurance, the Producer Price Index (PPI) must purchase access to symbol group data used by auto insurance companies. This data is not available from public sector sources. This data is required to calculate mission critical producer price index.
The BLS/OPLC supplements the auto and motor vehicle indexes with symbol group data to calculate the dollar value associated with the change in risk as autos move from one symbol group to another, which is the information required for quality adjustment. Without this data, the PPI cannot accurately reflect price change for the Automobile Insurance and Motor Vehicle Insurance indexes, respectively.
