FY26 PIMS Peer Review on Plan Sponsor Health
Solicitation # 16PBGC26Q0037
The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) is seeking a qualified independent contractor to perform a targeted peer review of the Single-Employer and Multiemployer Pension Insurance Modeling Systems (PIMS) for the 2026–2027 period, as required under Section 40233(a) of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21). This review specifically focuses on the assumptions and methods used within the current versions of both PIMS models to incorporate the financial health of plan sponsors into their projections, building upon the recently modernized SE PIMS and the aligned economic scenario generator now shared by both systems. The findings will support PBGC’s annual Projections Report and its broader analysis of program solvency, legislative impacts, and internal budgeting, though the review will not cover the legacy SE PIMS model. The solicitation, titled FY26 PIMS Peer Review on Plan Sponsor Health and issued under solicitation number 16PBGC26Q0037, requires the contractor to evaluate the technical soundness, transparency, and appropriateness of modeling approaches related to employer financial conditions, while also welcoming suggestions for refinements based on the contractor’s expertise in pension modeling. Responses are due by August 20, 2026, with work to be performed primarily in Washington, DC. PBGC is open to subcontracting arrangements to ensure the review’s effectiveness and is managed by David Feliciano-Merino of the Office of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, part of the Department of Labor. The NAICS code for this opportunity is 541990, indicating it is scoped for other professional, scientific, and technical services.
