- Sources Sought - MOBIS contractors only. This Sources Sought is requesting a response from Management, Organizational and Business Improvement Services (MOBIS) concerns capable of providing services in evaluating the security related services to the federal judiciary. The responsibility for providing security related services to the federal judiciary is vested in two executive branch agencies: the United States Marshals Service (USMS), a bureau within the Department of Justice, and the Federal Protective Service (FPS), an organization within the Department of Homeland Security (DOH). The contractor must provide all personnel, equipment and other items and services necessary management, supervision, manpower, materials, supplies, and equipment (except as otherwise provided) and plan, schedule, coordinate, and assure effectiveness in completing the final report. The contractor must be able to pass background investigation requirements. The program study will include a review and assessment of the effectiveness and efficiency of the current standards, policies and procedures and make recommendations for improvements for courthouse exterior and interior physical security, after hours and 24 hour security, courtroom security, the USMS Court Security Officer (CSO) program, and the uses of FPS guards in court occupied facilities. The contractor will analyze the roles and relationships among FPS, USMS and the Administrative Office of U.S. Courts (AO) and their influences on the Judicial Facility Security Program (JFSP) and identify any management problems and/or issues due to divided responsibilities and overlapping roles. The contractor will describe and analyze the potential impact of recommended changes to these relationships or responsibilities on planning, budgeting and managing the Judicial Facility Security Program. The contractor will consider and analyze the effects of staffing, organization, and operational policies and practices of security requirements and standards in the judiciary and the impact of changing technologies for the future. The contractor will assist the current security program functions and costs and will provide recommendations with supportive rationale and implementation strategies for consideration by the Director of the U.S. Marshals Service, and any other appropriate entities as may be necessary. The contractor's recommendations must be designed to promote enhanced program accountability and credibility. The Contractor will also conduct a feasibility study of a proposed uniformed "special or court security" officer division within the USMS, FPS or the AO. The Contractor will consider whether full time equivalent federal employees should replace the current contracted Court Security Officers. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541611 ($1. million). Services are anticipated to commence on or about October 1, 2003.
