About the company
Afl-Cio Working For America Institute, Inc. (doing business as Aflcio Working For America Institute) is a tax-exempt non-profit organization headquartered in Washington, DC, that operates as a federal grant recipient and subcontractor delivering workforce development, apprenticeship training, and technical assistance programs to the Department of Labor and other agencies. The vendor's federal footprint spans ten awards across the past eighteen years, with 80% positioned as prime awards (predominantly grants) and 20% as subcontract work; activity clusters around the Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration, which accounts for 100% of the vendor's combined potential value at $11 million across six awards.
The vendor's primary capability portfolio centers on pre-apprenticeship program design and administration, women-focused workforce development in advanced manufacturing, and technical assistance delivery to employers, labor unions, and workforce intermediaries. A representative prime grant from the Department of Labor Women's Bureau (awarded September 2023, ultimate completion May 2025) funds a pre-apprenticeship program targeting women of color in the Greater Birmingham advanced manufacturing sector, including industrial maintenance and machine tool technology instruction delivered through Lawson State Community College, supportive services administration, placement into registered apprenticeships, and employer and union technical assistance webinars. The vendor also held a prior grant from DOL for apprenticeship and training-related work. In its subcontractor role, Afl-Cio Working For America Institute delivers technical assistance on the Department of Labor's Building Pathways to Infrastructure Jobs grant program under a sub-award to Jobs For The Future Inc. (awarded February 2026) and provided mission-execution support services to the Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory under a sub-award to KBC Energy Solutions LLC (awarded April 2023).
The vendor operates primarily under the Department of Labor's grant portfolio, with two task orders placed against a Multiple Award Schedule vehicle. Combined dollars obligated across all awards ($20.8 million) exceed combined potential value ($11 million), indicating that several awards have been drawn down beyond their stated ceilings or potential values. Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal SCI activity — 0.3 FTEs reported in FY2024 across two named subcontractor records — reflecting that the vendor's federal work is dominated by grants rather than service contracts subject to SCI reporting thresholds. The vendor faces no recompete cliff within the next twenty-four months based on the stated ultimate completion dates in the award portfolio.
