About this opportunity
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued a Sources Sought Notice (SSN) for an On-line Federal Employment Data System to support its Labor/Employee Relations and Workers' Compensation Specialists and other business units. The IRS is conducting market research to identify vendors capable of providing brand-name or equal services, specifically seeking capability statements from qualified industry providers. Key requirements include providing continuous web-based access to a federal employment data system with comprehensive case law databases, labor arbitration capabilities, and government ethics resources, with 100% access availability during the performance period excluding scheduled maintenance. Respondents must submit a cover letter identifying company information, UEI number, points of contact, and business size classification under NAICS Code 513210 (Software Publishers), along with information on associated GWAC vehicles such as GSA Schedule or GSA OASIS contracts. The submission deadline for capability statements is February 26, 2026, though this SSN is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal RFQ/RFP or commitment to contract.
This opportunity carries no set-aside designation and no incumbent contractor is identified in the sources sought notice. The specified brand-name product is CyberFEDS, which includes two proprietary subscription services: CyberFEDS On-the-Web Subscription and CyberFEDS Workers' Compensation Library on the Web, requiring a case index with fifteen-plus years of historical information and labor arbitration database with statistical analysis capability. The contract performance period runs for one base year from March 30, 2026, to March 29, 2027, with an option year extending to March 29, 2028, with deliverables including authorized user list confirmation and user account setup within five days of award and semi-annual subscription usage reports. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, and place of performance is at the contractor's facility with no government-furnished property or security requirements applicable.
