IT Contingent Labor

The IT contingent labor (ITCL) program contract provides an easy and quick way for public bodies to access quality information technology (IT) labor resources. Resources can be in the form of IT contractors, paid an hourly rate based on their skills, or in the form of a deliverables-based statement of work solution for initiatives totaling less than $3 million. 

  • The hourly-based resource solution, also called staff augmentation, covers a broad range of services with 53 IT job titles that are available at varying degrees of experience. Each of these titles has a not-to-exceed hourly rate based on the latest market conditions in two of the major economic zones in the commonwealth.
  • The deliverables-based solution provides fixed price statement of work initiatives in one of the 15 specialty areas currently in demand throughout Virginia.
  • The program also offers customers the ability to engage in a fixed price monthly services fee for a defined scope of Operations and Maintenance (O&M) maintenance support services for business applications.
