Department of labor (DOL) access for employment verification

The Internal Revenue Service is seeking to procure online user access to employment verification and wage reporting services from the Connecticut Department of Labor to support SBSE Collection activities. This contract will enable the IRS to prepare IRC 6020(b) assessments, verify CAWR assessments, review business address records, and verify employer payroll requirements for BMF entities, with the service specifically designed to develop leads in "Unable to Locate" and "Unable to Contact" cases as outlined in the Internal Revenue Manual. The procurement falls under NAICS code 921190 (Other General Government Support) and PSC code R612 (Support-Administrative: Information Retrieval). The pre-solicitation notice was posted on August 14, 2025, with a response deadline of August 18, 2025, providing potential contractors with a very short four-day window to respond. The evaluation criteria and specific qualification requirements are not detailed in the available documentation.

This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to full and open competition. The contract structure includes a base year running from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, followed by four additional option years that would extend the contract through September 30, 2030, creating a potential five-year engagement. The pricing structure incorporates an annual administrative fee plus transaction fees for fewer than 49,999 accesses, though specific dollar amounts remain to be determined. No current incumbents or existing contractors are identified in the documentation, and exact award values or budget ranges have not been disclosed. The contract is being pursued under Collection Automation Support & Security (CASS) requirements to obtain local services not available through existing national contracts.
