Request for Proposal for Data System Announced

The Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology, Counseling, and Occupational Therapy Licensure Compact Commissions are excited to announce a Request for Proposals for the development of a compact data system.

The compact data system will be used by the commissions, compact member states, and licensed professionals to facilitate interstate practice and enhance public protection.

The selected vendor will work with the commissions during the development of the data system to work through priority user needs and incrementally assess performed work.

The full RFP is attached. A webinar on the RFP will be held October 5 for questions. The submission deadline is November 20. Additional questions can be directed to Isabel Eliassen at ieliassen@csg.org by November 6.

A status update page is coming soon. Thank you for your patience.

The Occupational Therapy Licensure Compact (OT Compact) is an interstate compact, or formal agreement among states, that facilitates interstate practice of occupational therapy.

Under the OT Compact, Occupational Therapists (OTs) and Occupational Therapy Assistants (OTAs) who are licensed in good standing in a Compact member state may practice in other Compact member states via a “compact privilege,” which is equivalent to a license.

The OT Compact is a joint initiative of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) and the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT®).
