AI Contract Overview

The Department of Commerce is seeking to finalize the development and transfer of the Workforce Data System (WDS), a secure Salesforce-based cloud application designed for the CPO to administer Annex G workforce awards. The system is critical for managing workforce funding disbursements, which are issued as advances via Workforce Solution Funding Orders. These orders define the purpose of each disbursement and establish the performance data required to verify that funds are being used correctly, thereby minimizing fraud risk. The WDS is largely complete, with Natcast having previously funded 88 percent of the build, totaling 3.51 million dollars of a 3.99 million dollar cost. Through a settlement, the CPO acquired the system from Natcast at no cost and has negotiated a reduced fee of 772 thousand dollars with the vendor, BCG, to complete the remaining build and facilitate the transfer to NIST. This forecast is categorized under NAICS code 541611.

Full Description

The WDS is a secure, Salesforce-based cloud application that is necessary for CPO to administer the Annex G workforce awards effectively as advances and minimize fraud risk. The system is almost entirely built, and Natcast paid for 88% of the build ($3.51M of $3.99M). With the support of the Secretary’s Office, CPO has obtained the mostly-built WDS from Natcast in a settlement at no cost and negotiated the vendor (BCG) down to $772K for the rest of the build and transfer to NIST.¿ This system is needed because CPO Workforce Funding disbursements differ from milestone disbursements: they are paid in advances via Workforce Solution Funding Orders, which establish the intended purpose of each disbursement of CHIPS workforce funds and details the performance data that will be collected to verify the intended purposes are being carried out.¿The WDS provides a technology platform to efficiently develop Workforce Solution Funding Orders, e
