2026-RFI-MSP-Job Task Analysis and Entrance Exam

The Massachusetts Department of State Police is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number BD-26-1084-POLGH-GHQ-128877 to inform the development of a future Request for Response (RFR) contract. This is not a contract solicitation, but a procurement planning tool aimed at gathering information from qualified vendors for the design, development, and implementation of a job analysis and content validation study. The primary objective is to update the essential functions and knowledge, skills, abilities, and personal characteristics (KSAPs) required for the entry-level State Police Trooper position. The scope of the future project will include the creation of a secure computer-based entrance exam that can be administered both online and in-person at various locations throughout Massachusetts, featuring flexible scheduling and identity confirmation. Additionally, the selected vendor will be responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the MSP Trooper Applicant list. Interested vendors must provide a comprehensive company profile and a point-by-point response to the RFI requirements. The response deadline is November 18, 2026, and the primary point of contact is Purchaser Brian Kearnan.
