OAA-26-00205 - Healthcare Building Model Development and Cost Updates

The Department of Labor's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to identify vendors capable of developing healthcare building cost models and providing quarterly cost updates. The primary services being procured include identifying representative healthcare building projects in each of the four major Census regions (Northeast, South, Midwest, and West), developing four detailed regional cost models based on these projects, and establishing a methodology for quarterly updates to material, labor, and installation costs. Key qualifications include demonstrated experience with healthcare building construction cost modeling, the ability to analyze and rate construction plans and specifications, and access to reliable pricing data sources for ongoing quarterly updates. The Government will evaluate responses as either "Relevant" or "Irrelevant" based on applicability to these objectives, with relevant respondents potentially invited to present their approach and products to a Government panel of Subject Matter Experts. Critical deadlines include March 19, 2026 at 10:00 AM EST for submission of questions and March 23, 2026 at 10:00 AM EST for RFI responses, which must be submitted via email to DeCarlo Coleman at coleman.decarlo@dol.gov and not exceed 30 pages in Microsoft Word format with Times New Roman 11- or 12-point font.

This is a market research RFI with no set-aside designation, meaning the Government reserves the right to conduct full and open competition or potentially set the requirement aside for small businesses in future solicitations. No incumbent contractor or current contract information is identified in the notice. No budget range or award value is disclosed in the RFI, as this is a preliminary information-gathering effort rather than a formal solicitation. The requirement encompasses developing four regional models and implementing a sustainable quarterly update process, though specific timelines for model completion and the duration of the quarterly update commitment are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice. Interested vendors should submit responses demonstrating their company background, relevant service experience, business classification, capability to deliver all required services, past performance on similar projects with references, and the sources and scope of their pricing data for quarterly cost updates.
