- Description
- The synopsis is to notify potential offerors of the Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) intent to issue a Request for Proposal (HSTS01-09-R-FIN054) in support of the Office of Financial Management. Financial system data integrity and financial reporting support is required to ensure the appropriation accounts assigned to TSA are properly stated in the agency financial system and ready for the annual financial statement audits. The contractor will be required to provide activities necessary to assure the quality of TSA financial data and reporting, and ensure financial system accuracy. This includes activities such as recommendations on the oversight of accounting functions, formal monthly reporting, reconciliation processes and systems accounting issues. It also covers the processes associated with producing reliable financial statements and related disclosures in compliance with Federal Accounting Standards and Public Laws, including the preparation and support of financial estimates for TSA. Finally, the contractor will be required to provide assistance to support TSA's compliance with Generally Acceptance Accounting Principles (GAAP) through the periodic analysis of emerging federal accounting and audit issues and various aspects of day to day accounting operations. This procurement will be a full and open competition with preference given to Service Disabled, Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SBVOSB), 8(a) Business Development businesses, or Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) businesses. The anticipated acquisition strategy will be the cascade strategy which is outlined below: •• If three or more acceptable SDVOSB, 8(a), and/or HUBZone proposals are received, other proposals will not be considered for award. •• If three or more acceptable SDVOSB, 8(a), and/or HUBZone proposals are not received, the Government will then consider proposals from all small businesses. •• If three or more acceptable proposals are received from small businesses, large business proposals will not be considered for award. •• If less than three acceptable proposals are received from small business concerns, the Government will consider all offers. As a result of the solicitation, the Government intends to award a single firm fixed priced contract for commercial services to the Contractor whose proposal conforms to the solicitation, will meet the Government's requirements and represents the overall best value solution to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The term of the contract will be a one-year base contract with four one-year options for a total term, if all options are exercised, of five years. The Government anticipates a final solicitation for this requirement will be posted on or about October 9, 2009 on FedBizOpps. All responsible sources may submit a proposal for consideration once the solicitation is posted. Questions for this action shall be made in writing to the email address provided; no telephone calls will be accepted.
