Description: The United States Department of the Treasury, Departmental Offices, Procurement Services Division, Washington, DC is issuing this sources sought synopsis to identify potential contractors that have the capacity and qualifications to provide seized and forfeited property contract management services. Potential contractors shall provide, in accordance with the information and instructions herein, a Statement of Capability (SOC) for their qualifications for a potential contract. Services include, but are not limited to: custody, management, and disposition of seized/forfeited property through the use of nationwide or regional contracts which collectively are operational in all 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and all U.S. Territories. Seized property can include vehicles, vessels, aircraft, firearms, hazardous materials, counterfeit goods and other general property. The Department of the Treasury will consider suggestions for subdivision of work or contracts by property type (such as vehicles exclusively), geographical regions (such as regional or national coverage), and/or service type (such as destructions or sales exclusively). See Attachment A for data regarding the amount and type of property historically involved in seized and forfeited property contract management services. Under the existing contract, three centralized storage facilities are utilized for the management of property. In California, there is approximately 500,000 square feet of warehouse space that can accommodate 50,000 pallets. In New Jersey, there is approximately 360,000 square feet of property that can accommodate 40,000 pallets. In Florida, there is 60,000 square feet of property that can accommodate 2,000 pallets. Space expansion in Florida, in the amount of 250,000 additional square feet of warehouse space that could accommodate 20,000 pallets, is currently under review. Potential contractors shall capture, report and maintain seizure documentation and related costs regarding the above activities and be on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. The objectives include: minimizing contract costs, minimizing the time for receipt and disposition of property, minimizing adverse incidents and complaints; and maximizing cooperation with, services to, the federal government. The Contractor shall be required to develop a document control system to assist in automating, controlling, referencing, filing, and retrieving of correspondence between their office and the Government. The Contractor may be asked by the Government to provide pre seizure services for general property including vehicles, aircrafts, vessels, machinery, and equipment. Such services may require the pre positioning of resources (staffing and equipment) prior to the actual seizure of the property and may include but are not limited to: towing to a different site, lien determinations, dropping and replacing gas tanks in vehicles, providing services to facilitate inspection, tire breakdown, and transport of vehicles to Government x ray facilities for the inspection services. The Contractor shall be available at all times to take custody of all property at the time, date, and location designated by the Government. The Contractor shall arrange for safe, secure, and cost effective transportation of the property from the point of acceptance to storage. Property shall be stored in the most cost-effective method available to preclude any deterioration of the property, so that the overall condition of the property is maintained as it was at the time of acceptance. The Contractor must be able to locate and provide property within an hour’s notice. The Contractor shall control access to property stored under this contract. The Contractor must maintain records for all property including but not limited to billing, accounting, and storage of property. The Contractor shall maintain and preserve property as necessary to ensure that it retains its overall condition from the time of acceptance until disposition. The Contractor shall arrange and conduct the sale of property upon receipt of instructions from the Government. The Contractor shall publicly advertise the sale of property in order to generate maximum competition. The Contractor shall prepare and maintain a risk management plan. The Contractor is responsible for detecting, identifying, and managing hazardous materials according to Federal, State, and local laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations that apply to environmental quality standards in each community where property is maintained or destroyed.
