- Description
- RESEARCH SERVICES FOR LAUS MODELS The Bureau of Labor Statistics is seeking sources to provide research services for improving local area umemployment statistics models. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) publishes monthly national labor force estimates that are computed using Current Population Survey (CPS) data. The BLS Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program uses state-space signal-plus noise time series models to produce monthly employment and unemployment estimates for 9 geographic Census Divisions, each of the 50 States, and the District of Columbia. CPS data is used in conjunction with explanatory variables - payroll employment and unemployment insurance (UI) claims. The models use cutting-edge statistical methodology. Continuous refinement is needed to maintain currency with software systems and to improve estimates produced by the models. PLEASE REVIEW ATTACHED STATEMENT OF WORK FOR MORE INFORMATION.
