BLS OEWS data maps to IGCE-ready hourly rates by applying percentile wage profiles and SOC code mappings to estimate market rates. This reference guides you through query recipes and workflow rules to validate burdened hourly estimates for BD pricing.

The best way to map SOC codes for BLS wage data analysis is using SOC lookup translations tailored for federal contracting contexts. This reference provides mappings to build wage profiles and percentile measures across occupations and metros.

Handling suppressed values and data footnotes in BLS OEWS API responses requires applying specific error handling rules from the IGCE workflow reference. This guide documents common data issues and footnote interpretations to ensure accurate wage rate derivation.

Yes, you can estimate burdened hourly rates across metros using BLS OEWS data by applying IGCE workflow rules to regional wage percentiles. This reference supports metro-level analyses with query recipes and SOC-based mappings for BD decision context.

Yes, using this reference requires access to BLS OEWS data, SOC mappings, and IGCE workflow rules. The guide provides consolidated guidance and query recipes but depends on source data access to derive burdened hourly estimates for capture pricing.
