OFCCP’s Contractor Portal Technical Help Desk Open to Assist Contractors
OFCCP commends the federal contractors and subcontractors that have registered and certified their AAP compliance through the OFCCP Contractor Portal by the June 30, 2022 deadline.
OFCCP will consider those contractors that requested assistance from OFCCP on or before June 30, 2022 but have not yet completed registration or certification because of a pending request for assistance, to have met the June 30 deadline. The Contractor Portal Technical Help Desk is currently addressing open help desk tickets.
OFCCP has not extended the June 30 deadline. Contractors that have not yet registered and certified whether they are in compliance with their AAP obligations should do so as soon as possible. The OFCCP Contractor Portal Technical Help Desk will remain open and available to answer questions about the Portal and provide assistance.
Contractors that have not certified will be more likely to appear on OFCCP’s scheduling list than those that have certified their compliance with AAP requirements. Contractors that have not certified compliance include those that have not utilized the Portal to certify whether they are meeting their AAP requirements, as well as those contractors that have certified they have not developed or maintained an AAP.
In addition, contractors that have not certified compliance by September 1, 2022, will be included on a list provided to federal agency contracting officers. The purpose of this list is to enable contracting agencies to notify contractors of their certification obligations, thereby assisting OFCCP in securing compliance. See E.O. 11246 Sec. 205.
OFCCP offers a user guide and frequently asked questions to assist contractors with registering for the Contractor Portal and certifying compliance. For any technical issues, please submit an inquiry to the OFCCP Contractor Portal Technical Help Desk or call 1-800-397-6251 with any questions.
