Advanced Analytical Consulting Group: Research & Development in the Social Sciences & Humanities

This forecasted requirement from the Employee Benefits Security Administration within the Department of Labor seeks support for preparing an appendix to the Self-Insured Report to Congress, with the work expected to match the design and methodology of the previously published Appendix B by EBSA. The effort is positioned as research and development in the social sciences and humanities under NAICS code 541720, indicating a specialized analytical and reporting assignment rather than a routine administrative task. The place of performance is Washington, and the opportunity was posted on May 7, 2025. The posting identifies MARIA ROBLES as the primary point of contact and LINDA SOMUAH as the small business specialist, with contact emails provided for each. No solicitation number, set-aside designation, or detailed procurement terms are listed in the forecast data, suggesting this is an early notice rather than a full solicitation. The overall objective is to produce a consistent, methodologically aligned appendix that supports EBSA’s reporting to Congress and builds on prior published work.
