Description: NIH Child Care Subsidy Program Statement of Work (SOW) 1. Introduction and Overview The intent of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to secure a contractor that will provide administrative services for the NIH Child Care Subsidy Program. 2. Background The National Institutes of Health is soliciting proposals from qualified organizations to administer Agency's child care tuition assistance program. On November 12, 2001, President George W. Bush signed H.R. 2590 into Public Law 107-67 which includes permanent legislation authorizing the use of appropriated funds by executive agencies to provide child care services for Federal civilian employees. This legislation permits Federal agencies to administer a program to assist their lower income Federal employees with the costs of child care. The contractor will administer the program on behalf of the agency for the period of April 1, 2016 through December 31, 2021, with four (one year) extensions. In FY2014, 142 NIH Federal Employees were served with 180 children to receive the tuition assistance from the NIH Child Care Subsidy program. 3. Scope The goal is to assist lower income Federal employees with the cost of licensed child care services. Tuition assistance can reduce the amount of tuition parents pay for child care by providing subsidies, directly to the licensed child care provider. By providing assistance with child care cost, the employee can obtain quality dependable child care. 4.
