ODJFS Child Support SETS Modernization RFP

The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services is requesting proposals for the SETS (Support Enforcement Tracking System) Child Support Modernization project, with proposals due August 7, 2026. This is an enhancement to the existing child support system, not a new application.

The scope spans six modernization initiatives: Intake/Case Initiation to modernize state and federal data exchanges and automate locate and case process batch jobs currently running on the mainframe; Data Exchange Migration to convert COBOL and JCL batch programs scheduled through Control-M to the modernized architecture; Case Management to enhance core business capabilities for managing child support case lifecycles; Financial Management to upgrade critical financial operations components; Data Analytics to modernize the analytics platform and integrate actionable insights into case management functions; and Supporting Solutions to modernize peripheral modules supporting Ohio Child Support operations. The modernization is structured around human-centered design principles and cloud-native architecture.

Amendment 1 updates the cost workbook (posted July 20, 2026 alongside the base RFP and multiple supplements). Bidders must incorporate the amended cost information from Supplement 1b and subsequent supplements (Supplements 1a, 2, 3, and 4) into their proposals, as these documents modify or supersede previously submitted pricing and budgetary information.

The source does not provide contract value, contract term, incumbent contractor information, set-asides or preference programs, evaluation criteria weighting, pre-bid meeting dates, or question-submission deadlines beyond the August 7 proposal due date.
