About this opportunity

The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration seeks to award multiple time and materials contracts to industry intermediaries to promote the expansion of registered apprenticeship programs in emerging industries that have not traditionally utilized registered apprenticeship. Key requirements include conducting outreach, developing standards and competency models, advancing registration support, targeting specific industry sectors, providing subject matter experts, and enrolling a minimum of 400 new registered apprentices during the base period and 1,000 total over the first two years. Evaluation criteria are past performance, technical approach, key personnel qualifications, and price/cost. Quotes are due by May 26, 2023.

This solicitation is a 100% total small business set-aside with a NAICS code of 611513 for technical and trade schools. Awards will be made as multiple time and materials contracts for an unknown total value to promote registered apprenticeship expansion in emerging industries throughout the United States over a base period of June 2023 through June 2024 with four optional 12-month extensions. Incumbent registered apprenticeship intermediaries currently under contract with the Department are ineligible to apply as prime contractors or subcontractors.
