- Description
- The contractor shall provide support services directly related to federal background investigation processing. Background investigation support has the following major components: receipt, screening, data entry, case file maintenance and post-closing support. The contractor is required to provide all assigned support services needed to process and ensure the quality of all products provided by OPM to its customers. OPM intends to enter into negotiations, using electronic commerce, with only one source for a modification to an existing contract no sooner than fifteen (15) days following posting of this synopsis. Said negotiations for additional services shall be finalized prior to expiration of the existing contract and shall be for a period not to exceed twelve (12) months that will end prior to October 1, 2016. See Item 14 for existing contract award date information. OPM shall issue a competitive solicitation sometime thereafter for the subject support services that is currently scheduled to be awarded prior to October 1, 2016 and will be available via GPE. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by OPM as part of its on-going market research efforts. This synopsis is for the anticipated modification to an existing contract award only. The sole source that OPM intends to negotiate with for this action using the authority of FAR 6.302-1 is Next Tier Concepts of Vienna, Va. A modification to an existing contract with said vendor shall result from this synopsis and the request for proposal shall not be made available to other parties. OPM's background investigations program is critical to national security of the United States. In order to maintain the integrity of the program we must extend the current background investigations support services contract with NT Concepts for one (1) additional year of performance. Maintaining the contract with the existing vendor is the only way that OPM can avoid a debilitating transition. Transitioning to a new vendor at this critical and challenging time would unreasonably jeopardize OPM's ability to meet its mission. This notice is published in accordance with FAR 5.203. OPM will publish the approved justification in accordance with FAR 6.305 after the final modification is executed.
