Description
AI GeneratedThe United States Army Recruiting Division requires a cloud-based, multi-measure assessment platform delivered electronically and remotely to provide psychological testing materials for personnel assessment and selection. The platform must evaluate candidates across cognitive ability, workplace personality traits, and motivational drivers, synthesizing these domains into a single, job-specific predictive fit score. MICC-Ft. Knox intends to award a sole-source contract to Wonderlic, Inc., as market research indicates Wonderlic Select is the only platform meeting the psychometric requirements. However, all responsible sources may submit an offer, which MICC-Ft. Knox will consider. Interested parties may contact Contracting Officer Adrian J. Atkinson or Contract Specialist Emily H. Ryan directly, as the solicitation will not be posted on SAM.gov. The anticipated contract term spans from 6 November 2026 to 5 November 2030, covering a one-year base period and three one-year option periods.

Read the official notice description
The United States Army Recruiting Division (USARD) requests the renewal of Wonderlic Software to provide psychological testing materials. The USARD Office of the Command Psychologist (OCP) uses scientifically validated psychological tests and measures to assess, select, coach, and train personnel for critical assignments to enhance overall human performance. The platform must be a cloud-based, multi-measure assessment delivered electronically and remotely in a scalable environment. Functionally, it must evaluate candidates across three primary, scientifically validated domains: cognitive ability (to measure problem-solving and learning speed), workplace personality traits (modeled on the Five-Factor Model), and motivational drivers (to align occupational interests with job demands). A critical technical requirement is the platform’s ability to synthesize these distinct measures into a single, unified, job-specific predictive fit score, providing actionable data for selection and development. MICC-Ft Knox intends to award a contract on a sole-source basis, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 12.201-1, and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement Class Deviation (DFARS CD) 2026-O0028, to Wonderlic Inc., to support USARD. The anticipated award date is 6 November 2026, with period of performance of 6 November 2026 - 5 November 2030 (base year plus three option years). The solicitation will not be accessible on the Governmentwide Point of Entry (GPE) at https://www.sam.gov. Interested parties may contact Contracting Officer Adrian J. Atkinson, [email protected] and Contract Specialist, Emily H. Ryan [email protected]. All responsible sources may submit an offer that will be considered by the MICC - Ft. Knox.
