- Description
- The Social Security Administration (SSA) intends to award a sole source purchase order to the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) located at 1629 K Street NW, Suite 503, Washington, DC 20006-1634 to provide consultative services to assess the Disability Mentoring Day program, which is officially commemorated on the third Wednesday of every October. Originating with the White House in 1999, this large-scale, broad-based effort was designed to promote career development for students and other job seekers with disabilities through hands-on career exploration, job shadowing, internship or employment opportunities, and matching of mentee/mentor relationships. SSA will procure the expert services of a contractor who is familiar with SSA?s target population and can provide the personnel, materials, services, and equipment necessary to assure the success of Disability Mentoring Day activities. It is SSA?s belief that AAPD is the only source qualified to meet our needs, and is uniquely qualified because of its extensive experience in educating businesses and the general public about disability issues. AAPD has partnerships with other Federal Agencies to promote the economic and political empowerment of all children and adults with disabilities, educate businesses and the general public about disability issues. This notice is for informational purposes only and is neither a request for quotation nor an announcement of a forthcoming solicitation. Interested parties that believe they are capable of providing these services can submit a capability statement to John T. Andrews, Jr. via e-mail at john.t.andrews@ssa.gov no later than 4:30 p.m. EST, September 15, 2005. The Government will consider all information from responsible sources, but a determination by the Government not to compete this action is solely at the discretion of the Government.
