- Description
- RECOVERY - THIS AWARD NOTICE IS POSTED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. THIS OPPORTUNITY WAS AVAILABLE ONLY TO Accenture LLP for reasons described as below. In compliance with the transparency and accountability requirements associated with the supplemental appropriations provided by the American Recovery and Re-investment Act of 2009, Pub.L. 111-5, the Government posts this notice of issuance of modification 0013 to task order 0008 of Accenture’s Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract under the Internal Revenue Service’s Total Information Processing Support Services-3 (TIPSS-3) Program. The TIPSS-3 Program is a multiple agency contract that provides sources of information processing support services to the Department of Treasury, its Bureaus, and other federal agencies. The TIPSS-3 IDIQ contracts, as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 16.504, provide for an indefinite delivery date and indefinite quantity, within stated limits, of supplies or services during a fixed period. Each task order placed against the IDIQ contract specifies a definitive requirement or quantity and delivery date. The Health Coverage Tax Credit (HCTC) program was created as a part of the Trade Act of 2002 to provide eligible individuals health insurance tax credits. Under this effort, the current HCTC program has been expanded to meet legislatively mandated due dates resulting from the recent enactment of the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 (PL 111-05), also known as the Stimulus Bill. The ARRA includes provisions that change the administration of the HCTC program and significantly expands the volume of eligible taxpayers claiming the credit. Award of a modification to a previously competed task order under the authority of FAR 16.505 utilizing the IRS TIPSS-3 Program has been completed. The legislation does not allow for any ramp up period as it requires development & implementation within 60 days of its enactment. This is a hybrid type task order consisting of Firm-Fixed Price (FFP), Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF), and Cost Reimbursement (No Fee). The modification is not wholly fixed price because the required work could not be fully defined as required for use of a fixed price structure. Given the unknowns and risks involved in this ARRA work, it was in the best interest of the Government to issue a hybrid type order for this work. This will allow the Government to control price more accurately given the volatility of the work and our inability to control the future expansion needs of the program.
