The agency wants a single integrated platform that will be the infrastructure for a more data-driven federal HR ecosystem, according to solicitation documents.<\/p>\n<p>Bidders had to submit proposals by Oct. 31 and OPM followed a two-step process for evaluation. After step one, IBM Corp. and then Economic Systems Inc. filed their protests.<\/p>\n<p>IBM filed its protest on Feb. 25 but withdrew without explanation on April 3. Meanwhile, Economic Systems filed a protest on March 2. On Monday, the Government Accountability Office posted on its public docket that it had denied Economic Systems protest.<\/p>\n<p>OPM could not make an award while the protests were active, but it could continue to evaluate proposals. Now it can pick a winner with the protests out of the way.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/marketrelocationreport.com\/?p=170\">Trump signs order moving thousands of federal employees into Schedule F<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While no dollar value has been disclosed, the undertaking is massive.<\/p>\n<p>OPM wants the platform to have\u00a0functions such as position management, personnel action, records processing, workforce analytics, and employee and manager self-service capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The agency will pick a winner based on four technical factors including past experience and solution readiness, a written implementation approach, systems testing, and a virtual live demonstration.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, OPM awarded a sole-source contract to Workday to fast-track the modernization effort. OPM later\u00a0rescinded it amid criticism\u00a0and instead moved to create the current solicitation for a broader, government-wide solution.<\/p>\n<p>Workday is one of several companies in the running for Federal HR 2.0.
