- Description
- Provision 4-3 Provision 4-2 References Resume Table of Contents Cover Page FAD Statement of Work Solicitation Provisions Proposal Instructions The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is soliciting individuals with the right skill sets and interested in investing numerous hours a week to write Final Agency Decisions (FADs) in accordance with EEOC regulations and USPS quality and timeliness standards. Selected individuals will be independent contractors, located throughout the United States, who will enter into Ordering Agreements with the USPS to provide FAD writing services in accordance with the Terms and Conditions* set forth in the Ordering Agreement. Individual Task Orders assigning the writing of particular FADs will be issued under the Ordering Agreement in a "fee for service" arrangement. There is no guarantee of work or the number of cases assigned. An ordering agreement is not itself a contract. It is a written agreement negotiated between the Postal Service and a supplier that contains terms and conditions applying to future contracts (i.e., task orders) between the parties. The contracts are established when task orders are issued and accepted by the parties. The selected applicants will prepare Final Agency Decisions (FADs) on the merits of discrimination complaints and/or entitlement to compensatory damages for the United States Postal Service (Postal Service), National Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Investigative Services Office (NEEOISO) and other agencies as assigned. Each FAD will inform the complainant of the outcome of his/her claim(s) of discrimination or entitlement to compensatory damages and the rights to appeal the decision. The Postal Service is responsible for ensuring that discrimination complaints are processed fairly, promptly, thoroughly, and in strict compliance with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) regulations. EEOC Regulations require that the Postal Service take a final action on all EEO complaints not settled or withdrawn A FAD writer is paid on a "per case" basis, generally $450, on successful completion of the case. FAD writer performance will be evaluated by USPS NEEOISO management based on quality, writing style and timeliness. Depending on work load and case complexity, FAD writers may average from 8 to 10 cases per month. Note: The information regarding average number of cases assigned to FAD writers is provided to offerors for workload estimation purposes only, and does not provide any guarantee that an awardee will be assigned the same number, a similar number, or any number of cases. * Full Terms & Conditions will be provided to the selected applicants for their review and agreement. These will not be provided as part of the Solicitation 2B-16-A-0103 process.
