Complex Data Project Management

ORI delivers accurate, timely, and globally significant national employment reports for the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Since July of 2007 ORI has served as prime contractor for data collection services in support of the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program. CES, one of the largest surveys conducted in the nation, collects information each month about basic employment, payroll and hours worked from a sample of over 300,000 business establishments across the U.S. The tight production timeline, strict security, and reporting protocols leave no room for error. ORI has developed, deployed, and currently manages an integrated team to produce the reports that BLS, and the nation, depends on.

ORI has consistently met stringent collection requirements, and provided rigorous project management, a flexible workforce and consistent responsiveness to BLS. Because of their satisfaction with CES, BLS has hired ORI to perform consulting services and additional ad-hoc research projects.
