FY26-DDOT-OD-Building Bridges to Opportunity OJT Supportive Services Training

The District of Columbia Department of Transportation is forecasting a pre-construction training program titled FY26-DDOT-OD-Building Bridges to Opportunity OJT Supportive Services Training, set to be posted on July 23, 2026. This initiative is designed to prepare individuals for employment opportunities in transportation construction through on-the-job training and supportive services, with the goal of increasing workforce participation and fostering equitable access to skilled labor roles within federally funded infrastructure projects. The program targets underserved communities and aims to build pathways to long-term careers by combining hands-on training with wraparound support such as case management, transportation assistance, and workforce readiness services. While specific funding details, contract value, and solicitation procedures have not yet been released, the effort is aligned with broader federal and local priorities to diversify the construction workforce and ensure local hiring on public projects. The training will likely be delivered in partnership with community organizations, labor unions, and educational institutions, focusing on safety certification, technical skill development, and job placement assistance. Performance is expected to occur within the District of Columbia, with services tailored to meet the needs of residents in neighborhoods adjacent to upcoming transportation infrastructure initiatives. No set-aside classifications or NAICS codes have been designated at this forecast stage, but interested vendors and service providers should monitor the official portal for upcoming solicitation notices.
