B -- ALTERNATIVE METHOD OF IDENTIFYING TAX RETURNS FOR EXAMINATION SOL TIRNO-98-R-00037 DUE 060498 POC Steve VanderLinden, (202) 283-1379 E-MAIL: Contracting Officer, steve.vanderlinden@ccmail.irs.gov. The Internal Revenue Service is seeking an alternative method of identifying tax returns which have a high potential for tax error and ranking those returns according to their tax change potential. A discriminant function method is presently being used; we are not seeking other discriminant function methods, but alternative state-of-the-art or innovative workload selection methodologies. Systems must be computer-based or capable of effectively interfacing with existing IRS computer technology. No telephone requests for the solicitation will be honored. (0107)
