- Description
- **UPDATED INFORMATION REGARDING DATES AND REQUIRED SUBMISSIONS** As stated in the prior FedBizOps announcement, the Department of Interior (DOI)/GovWorks is seeking potential contractors to provide a solution which will allow the processing of invoices electronically, hereinafter referred to as "e-invoicing". The e-invoicing shall be posted and processed through GovWorks' Business Information System (BIS), and ABACIS, our financial accounting system. GovWorks currently processes some 1,200 to 1,500 invoices per month for approximately 500 vendors. This is a labor and paper intensive environment. GovWorks' invoice approval process involves the attention and participation of several different entities. These entities include the vendor, procurement assistants, the COTR, the CO and the Finance department for disbursement of payments. In order to implement a successful e-invoicing solution, the system must provide 24 hour x 7 day accessibility to all entities involved. This requirement is being issued by GovWorks under the franchise authority of the Department of the Interior (DOI) in accordance with FAR 13.5, Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. This is not a request for competitive proposals. This competitive process will be simplified in order to facilitate the acquisition process and prevent undue administrative burden upon the Contractor(s) and the Government. The Government anticipates releasing the questions and answers, via the GovWorks web site, http://www.govworks.gov/vendor/csolicit.asp, no later than FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 2003. Please be advised that the Government reserves the right to transmit those questions and answers of a common interest to all prospective Offerors. In order to compete for this acquisition interested parties MUST demonstrate that they are qualified to perform the work by providing a Capabilities Statement which is due no later than 3:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 2003. The Government will review and evaluate the experience and capability of your organization and proposed project team as demonstrated by the information supplied in this submittal. All Offerors must submit an electronic copy in Microsoft Word plus one (1) original hard copy to the Contracting Officer at the address specified in this notice. Your Capabilities Statement should provide information detailing: (1) your key personnel and program manager (those who would have primary responsibility for performing and/or managing the work) with their qualifications and specific experience within the electronic invoicing environment; (2) your organizational experience within the electronic invoicing environment; and (3) specific references (including contract number & project description, period of performance, dollar amount, client identification with point of contact & telephone number) for previous related work within the electronic invoicing environment that your key personnel or organization have performed within the last two years. If you believe the Government may find derogatory information as a result of checking your past performance record, please provide an explanation and any remedial action taken by your organization to address the problem. After review of all Capabilities Statements, those offerors deemed "Best Qualified" will be provided additional proposal instructions and contract requirements. Your Capabilities Statement will be evaluated based on your key persons' skills, abilities and experience within the electronic invoicing environment; your organization's experience and past performance (including number, size, and complexity of similar projects, technical excellence, adherence to schedules and budgets, effectiveness of program management, willingness to cooperate when difficulties arise, willingness to partner with the Government in providing robust solutions, general compliance with the terms of the contracts, and acceptability of delivered product and service rendered.)
