Selective Service System Website Modernization

The Selective Service System (SSS) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to gather market research for modernizing its website. The goal is to transform the current static website into a comprehensive, modern web application that allows users to manage claims and volunteer applications. The SSS seeks qualified vendors to design, develop, secure, host, and maintain a scalable, compliant, cloud-hosted platform with back-end data entry and integration with federal digital identity standards. Key requirements include a fully managed AWS hosting environment with multi-region architecture, 24/7/365 uptime, rapid scalability, and support for WordPress or an equivalent CMS. The website must be Section 508 compliant, mobile-friendly, user-centered, and include an AI-powered conversational interface. A staging environment is required for testing automated workflows, especially for a mission change in December 2026. The RFI also details requirements for security, data tracking, a government content management system (CMS) with role-based access control, training, and compliance with federal accessibility and digital experience acts. The deadline for vendor responses is March 20, 2026, by 2:00 PM EST.
