Workforce shortages and uncertainties have derailed nuclear projects worldwide—causing delays, cost overruns and lost investor confidence. The specialized talent nuclear needs to succeed requires years to develop. The ReactorCast platform answers human capital questions, coupled to strategic decisions and financial considerations, before the issues become crises. ReactorCast is a custom system dynamics platform that models and ties strategic decisions and investment considerations with workforce requirements across the entire lifecycle of nuclear programs—from initial planning through decades of operation to eventual decommissioning. The platform provides real-time analytics and visual dashboards that track workforce flows from identified populations to education and training programs through employment across utilities, developers, contractors, regulators and support organizations. ReactorCast also models the impact of policy, regulatory and investment decisions on workforce development trajectories. Unlike individual HR management systems, ReactorCast operates at the strategic level—modeling the workforce potential to answer questions that matter most to executives, investors and leaders: Can this organization or region supply the talent we need? What does workforce availability mean for our site selection? How do different technology choices impact long-term staffing costs? These aren’t HR questions—they’re business strategy questions. The underlying modeling methodology— developed at Los Alamos and licensed to the IAEA as the basis for their national nuclear workforce planning workshops and tools—has been applied internationally across numerous nuclear programs LA-UR-26-23908 Technical Specifications Custom developed software for system dynamics modeling Modular, ex...

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.

This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
