and

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS 

SERVICE OCCUPATIONAL CLASSIFICATIONS 

BACKGROUND:

OASIS SB labor categories have been mapped to the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) Standard Occupational 

Classification (SOC) for which the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) maintains compensation data. Labor categories are further 

defined as Junior, Journeyman, and Senior based on years of experience, education, and duties/responsibilities as follows:

JUNIOR: A Junior labor category has up to 3 years experience and a BA/BS degree. A Junior labor category is 

responsible for assisting more senior positions and/or performing functional duties under the oversight of more senior 

positions. 

JOURNEYMAN: A Journeyman labor category has 3 to 10 years of experience and a BA/BS or MA/MS degree. A 

Journeyman labor category typically performs all functional duties independently.

SENIOR: A Senior labor category has over 10 years of experience and a MA/MS degree. A Senior labor category 

typically works on high-visibility or mission critical aspects of a given program and performs all functional duties 

independently. A Senior labor category may oversee the efforts of less senior staff and/or be responsible for the efforts 

of all staff assigned to a specific job.

SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT (SME): A Subject Matter Expert is an individual whose qualifications and/or particular 

expertise are exceptional and/or highly unique. Subject Matter Experts do not have specific experience/education 

qualifications, but are typically identified as recognized Industry leaders for a given area of expertise. Subject Matter 

Experts typically perform the following kinds of functions: Initiates, supervises, and/or develops requirements from a 

project’s inception to conclusion for complex to extremely complex programs; Provides strategic advice, technical 

guidance and expertise to program and project staff; Provides detailed analysis, evaluation and recommendations for 

improvements, optimization development, and/or maintenance efforts for client-specific or mission critical 

challenges/issues; Consults with client to define need or problem supervises studies and leads surveys to collect and 

analyze data to provide advice and recommend solutions.

Contractors may deviate from the definitions above when responding to task order solicitations so long as the deviations are 

clearly identified in their task order proposal. For example, a Contractor might label an employee as “Senior”, but the employee 

does not have a MA/MS degree. Likewise, a Contractor might label an employee as “Junior” even though the employee has 

more than 3 years experience. Deviations shall be clearly identified in proposals submitted in response to task order 

solicitations.
