Request for Information (RFI) School Choice Education Voucher Platform

The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking details from contractors capable of providing a commercially available, proven platform to manage a proposed school choice education voucher program. This program is designed to support approximately 11,000 military dependents at U.S. bases and installations. The objective is to gather information to aid in planning and does not represent a solicitation or guarantee that a formal request for proposals will be issued. The anticipated contract will cover one base year with four option years under the NAICS code 518210, related to data processing and hosting services. The RFI is open to small businesses as a total small business set-aside, with responses due by mid-June 2026. The release of a formal solicitation depends on legislative authorization and funding availability. The contract will be managed through DoDEA’s office in Alexandria, Virginia, and points of contact are provided for interested parties to request additional information or submit feedback. This initiative underscores the department’s intent to efficiently support military families by utilizing technology-based solutions to administer education voucher programs.
