RFI- Supplemental Lodging Reservation Service

The General Services Administration (GSA) is conducting market research to assess the feasibility of a supplemental lodging reservation service for eligible entities. This includes state and local governments, Congressional offices, government contractors, non-profit organizations, and tribal groups. The GSA is requesting industry input on the attached Statement of Objectives and capability evaluation questions to help assess market readiness and capacity. • The service should provide a system for collecting and tracking hotel participation fees and quarterly remittance to the government. • It should ensure full 508 Compliance requirements and have a testing methodology. • The system should capture, translate, and normalize FedRooms rate codes for reporting purposes and have quality assurance processes. • It should provide flexible, ad hoc reporting in an interactive online environment and accommodate new reporting requirements. • The system should ensure reservations are confirmed and honored between the hotel and the traveler. • Experience in obtaining a Federal Authority to Operate (ATO) for similar projects at government agencies is desirable. • The service should have government experiences similar to CIO-IT Security-19-95 and CIO-IT Security-09-48 requirements.
