with FNS and USDS to define its
approach and ensure solutions are
practical, integrated into clinic
practices, and drive towards a better
participant journey through the WIC
program and improved outcomes. FNS
expects the Center to support WIC State
agencies in improving enrollment and
service delivery through a variety of
ways, such as:
• Supporting State and local agencies
in developing project ideas and
proposals aimed at improving the
participant journey and program
outcomes;
• Helping State and local agencies
use HCD, technology, and data more
effectively in their clinic operations to
increase enrollment and reduce
disparities in program delivery;
• Assisting State and local agencies in
addressing technical and/or service
gaps; and
• Working with State and local
agencies to implement holistic
technology solutions and process
changes. This might include helping
them prototype, test, and iterate on
potential solutions; and evaluating
existing products or developing new
ones for adoption by agencies. The
Center might assist State and local
agencies in procuring or implementing
these solutions and measuring their
impact on enrollment and retention.
Examples of solutions aimed at
improving the applicant and participant
experience may include:
• Participant-facing technology tools
such as online schedulers, document
uploaders, and participant portals;
• Data matching, interoperability,
and/or cross-enrollment projects to
reduce the documentation burden on
participants;
• Technology platforms, which allow
applicants to choose video, phone, text,
or other voice applications to connect
with WIC clinics;
• Content updates, such as content
strategy or plain language updates to
websites, forms, or notices;
• Data analytics tools; and
• Process improvements.
In addition to providing direct
support to State and local agencies, FNS
expects the Center to identify, evaluate,
develop, and disseminate effective
solutions and technical standards across
States, and help WIC State agencies
leverage their data to improve the WIC
customer experience. It will also
facilitate collaboration between WIC
State agencies to address common
operational issues.
FNS anticipates that the Center will
support multiple WIC State agencies at
once. The Center should have quick
access to talent covering a spectrum of

potential needs, and must be agile and
capable of meeting shifting goals and
objectives as they learn more about the
problem space.
II. Responses
FNS is seeking information from
stakeholders on the following questions.
Responses should be limited to 10
single-spaced pages that follow the
formatting guidelines above.
Respondents should not include
proprietary information or concepts in
their responses.
FNS requests the following
information:
(1) What capabilities should the
Center have to effectively support State
and local WIC agencies in implementing
new technology solutions and process
changes?
(2) How should the Center evaluate
WIC State agency needs and prioritize
projects?
(3) How should the Center work with
State and local WIC agencies to help
them modernize their WIC programs
and improve the participant journey
through WIC?
(4) How should the Center share and
promote the reuse of best practices,
solutions, code, reference
implementations, and other resources
among WIC State agencies to help them
address common operational issues that
impact the customer experience?
(5) How would you define and
measure success for the Center?
(6) What risks do you foresee in
establishing a Center to support WIC
State agencies? How would you mitigate
those risks?
(7) Do you have any other feedback or
suggestions on this Center-based
approach? Please describe in detail.

Administrator, Food and Nutrition Service.
