The U.S. Selective Service System (SSS) has issued a request for quotes (RFQ) for readiness simulation software to help evaluate staffing and resource requirements in the event a military draft is reinstated. The independent agency, which maintains a registration list of men aged 18-25 and a special-skills database for healthcare workers, wants tools to model the full mobilization pipeline, support configurable scenarios, and provide decision-support analytics. The software must operate in a cloud environment, use anonymized data, and allow complete government ownership. This procurement comes ahead of a December 18, 2026 deadline when SSS will shift from requiring men to register themselves to automatically registering them using other federal databases. Quotes are due by August 14, 2026.
